The "Little Things"


As you might know, The head of the company survived that day because his son started kindergarten.

Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring donuts.

One woman was late because her alarm clock didn't go off in time.

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
because of an auto accident.

One of them missed his bus.

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
time to change.

One's car wouldn't start.

One went back to answer the telephone.

One had a child that dawdled
and didn't get ready as soon as he should.

One couldn't get a taxi.

And one was a man who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.

That is why he is alive today.

Now when I am stuck in traffic, miss an elevator,
turn back to answer a ringing telephone...
all the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself, this is exactly where
God wants me to be at this very moment.

Next time your morning is going wrong,
the children are slow getting dressed,
you can't seem to find the car keys,
you hit every traffic light,
don't get mad or frustrated;
God is at work watching over you.
May God continue to bless you with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose.

And may I add: The ones that parished that day, were not there by mistake either

Luck had nothing to do with it. They were definitely Blessed. Thanks for sharing that with us oklacity75.:wink:

That was very nice and I enjoyed very much. There is a reason and place for everbody. It is kinda touching, I have been in a hurry adn by some reason hesitated adn then to find out if I would have went or moved I may have been injured or worse.
