what. a. day.

thought it was going to be a normal day. however when i walked out to my car to go to work i first noticed all the broken glass on the street and then looked up and sadly realized it came from my drivers door window. yeah, evidently someone did some christmas shopping in my car. lucky day for them - got themselves an ipod and a gps. oh and my cheap, yet favorite pair of sunglasses. interesting choice...maybe they thought they were some nice brand...$8 at target, sucker. oh wait..they still have my ipod and gps - dangit.

so yeah the day started with a bit of a speedbump and id be lying if i said i wasn't initially upset. money is real tight right now and so this was kinda the straw that broke the camel's back. however, in retrospect you realize it's just stuff. sure, it's stuff i liked to have but it's not like im not going to make it without either. also, coincidentally (in the worst kind of way) i went to work and found out another driver there actually got his truck stolen last nite. so...it can always be worse. way worse. and thanks to a pretty great person in my life, the window is already placed and i got a car on loan today to use so that i wouldn't miss work.

so at the end of the day i am no longer irritated but instead have a peace about it all. these money issues of late have allowed/caused/made me rely on the promise i have and know that God is always going to provide for me. easy to say but sometimes impossible for me to believe. but as i turn to Him and His word and encouraging words, i cant help but feel the weight lifting off my shoulders. so whether its actual money showing up or kind actions shown to me by people i care about, i know that I will be taken care of. God is good...all the time...and there's no better feeling than knowing and believing that to be true.
