God did something cool for me yesterday ( lol, like he doesn't do something cool for me everyday). anyway, story goes like this:
it's petty, but i hate to tuck in my shirt. at work yesterday, my boss said that we have to start tucking in our shirts - so i am immediately in a bad pouty mood over having to look nice (go figure)- anyway i start planning out ways to get around it. i'm talking anything from quitting my job, outright refusal to comply, to buying some sweaters and wearing them 12 months a year so i don't have to tuck in. ridiculous i know, so i asked the Lord to help me see how go to handle myself in this situation. day goes on.
i went to southcrest sunday morning with Baca and this girl invited us to a home group bible study tuesday night, sounded cool and i wanted to check it out. david is busy so i've gotta go by myself. for some reason i'm pretty stinkin' nervous about going to a bible study with a bunch of loving beleivers i don't know, but i take a breath and go anyway. i get there and try to pretend that i'm not nervously sweating but that i feel right at home around 15 people who all know each other, but that i have never met. as we go on, we open up the Bible to 1 Peter 2:11-23 and start discussing. what do i hear but "respect all authorities over you in the earth". crap, crap, crap- yes Lord, thank you Lord. needless to say, God blessed me in a cool way last night and i quit being a baby about it.
just thought i would share- maybe somebody else struggles with little stuff like this too. you never know how or where he'll speak.
