I had another one of my moments of coincidence, except this time it felt like God was telling me to do something and I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to do it. I am in the middle of editing my first novel. I feel lost because I don’t know if I am doing things right and I feel like I am having lots of problems. Then today in my writing group, the admin posted a link to a video that was about editing. It was like someone was handing me an answer to some of my questions.
I clicked on the link and saw that the video was an hour long. My very first thought was I don’t want to watch this; it is an hour long. It reminds me of the joke where a guy is stuck on top of his roof and God sends him a row boat, a motor boat, and a helicopter, but he doesn’t take any of them saying that God will save him. Then when he drowns, he asks God what happened, and God says, “I sent you two boats and a helicopter, what else did you want?”
I ask for God’s guidance and yet when I get what I am asking for, I complain because the video is an hour long. God must be up there in Heaven laughing at me. I guess I need to be more thankful. So, after I thank God for the many blessing He provides, I will be watching that video.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
