The plan was
I had this huge post I was gonna write that tied into the weirder and weirder post. I didn't delete the post about stuff. It's still there, you just can't see it right now. Let's face it; it wasn't one of my better efforts. An important topic that I don't think I did enough justice too, if you will.
Anyway, I was gonna.
And then I didn't.
Two very nice things happened to me yesterday. I got a check that was ten times the amount I was expecting. I don't get to keep all of it. I have to share with the ex. And the tax man. And others, I'm sure. But it's enough to fix my problem.
On my way to work yesterday, I heard something very interesting. If you re-read the post about weird, you'll notice the part where I said something was just noise. I found out yesterday afternoon it wasn't, through a radio program you can hear, too, by clicking on the link.http://bbnradio.org.edgesuite.net/BBNOnDemand/htmfiles/english/E0BBFTF.htm
Y'all probably won't. But I wish you would because at about the 20 minute mark, you will hear this woman tell a story about her missionary father and his struggles with converting natives who thought they had to worship Satan out of fear of him. He told the natives not to listen to the missionaries; that they were just noise like wind in the trees or something like that.
I'd heard someone tell me of a similar experience before and with that in mind, I'm thinking it's not just wind.
And I'm listening intently.
Having said that, I asked for and end to the nightmare and this time God sent a check. For ten times the amount I was expecting.
I find myself in a situation I don't quite know how to deal with. Money, I thought would solve my problem. Enough money would have. What I got is more than a little bit, but not enough to solve my problem outright. It's just enough to give me a whole new set of things to deal with.
Go me!
There are so many other things I'd like to spend this money on. A trip would be nice and long overdue! I miss the ocean.
I need some dental work done. I could fix the air conditioners in the house. I need to buy window blinds for the basement. I'm going to buy a lint screen for the dryer and clean out the vent. That's a have to have. I could fix a lot of things and then there's that mission trip the kids from church are going on. I'd like to give some of the money to them. That's high on the list of priorities. I'm going to paint my bedroom too. All done with purple.
There isn't enough money to do all of that, but there is enough to make a dent in the what's broken around here list.
What happens next is anyone's guess, but I think wisdom is to pray about where to go from here. One thing for certain; God does answer prayers.
