It amuses me how God works sometimes.
Today was a rather odd day. I spent my morning, after lying in bed for a little while, eating a big breakfast and finally being able to have a little therapy time. AKA: scrapbooking. Really, the scrapbooking is only half of the therapy. I often talk with God and listen to podcast sermons while I scrapbook. And that's just what I needed today. Today was a rather apathetic day. With much annoyance with myself, most of the day was spent in emotional exhaustion. Trying to process certain things going on in my life and feeling like a dramatic female in the process. Life is real, and life is hard sometimes. In the evening, after nap and some writing, I decided to head out for the evening and go to BW's house before dancing. Now, I'll admit, I really wasn't feeling up to going to BW's house. Not because of him, but because I didn't feel like I had much in me to contribute to this evening. I felt exhausted, drained, apathetic, and just ridiculous. On my way there, however, God decided to use his brilliant sense of humor to help me out. As I was talking to Him and asking Him for help, and surrendering control over to Him once more, a little squirrel started darting across the street - right in front of me. And I let out the girliest of screams that you have ever heard as I pressed my foot against the break. Luckily, the squirrel decided to have some common sense and stopped just before my car got in its path. Once the relief had settled over me, I began to laugh at myself. And I continued to laugh at myself the entire rest of the way to BW's. The first genuine sense of joy all day, and all because of a squirrel and a girlish scream. I love how God works in my life. I love how well he knows me, and that he knows exactly what I need in each moment. Even if that means almost hitting a dear little squirrel with my car.
