Me (in a tizzy):
God, can I ask you something? ...

God:
Sure ...

Me:
Promise you won't get mad? ...

God:
I promise ...

Me (frustrated):
Why did you let so much stuff

happen to me today? ...

God:
What do you mean? ...

Me:
Well I woke up late....,

God:
Yes ...

Me:
My car took forever to start ...

Me (growling):
At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong

and I had to wait ...

God:
Hmmm ...

Me:
On the way home, my phone went dead,
just as I picked up a call ...

God:
All right ...

Me (loudly):
And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in my foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that? ...

God:
Well, let me see ... The death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that ...

Me (humbled):
Oh...

God:
I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that might have hit you if you were on the road ...

Me (ashamed):
...

God:
The first person who made your sandwich today was sick and I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work ...

Me (embarrassed):
Oh ...

God:
Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered ...

Me (softly):
I see God ...

God:
Oh and that foot massager, it had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark ...

Me:
I'm sorry God.

God:
Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me ... 

in all things, the good and the bad ...

Me:
I will trust you God ...

God:
And don't doubt that my plan for your day

is always better than your plan ...

Me:
I won't God. And let me just tell you God, 

thank you for everything today ...

God:
You're welcome child. 

It was just another day being your God.
