So this morning I was SLOOOOOOWWWWWW getting out of bed. I stayed up too late last night reading and when the alarm went off I suffered for my poor choices.
I was supposed to go running with some friends like I do every Wednesday (every being very, very, liberal...). Luckily, it was raining this morning; I mean, darn. So yeah! got to go back to sleep for about 20 minutes, until it was time to get up and go run on the treadmill at work.
But... that's not the way God was answering prayers. Not that I wasn't kinda hoping it'd still be raining this morning, but He fed me.
I'm walking out of the house knowing that I don't have anything to take with me for breakfast. I debated for a second if I should stop by Arby's and just leave it on my desk while I ran, but I just said aloud... "God'll provide. I'm good."
While I was running I just assumed after I got off that I'd go for a biscuit run or something and assumed a few of my coworkers would want something too. But the first person I asked said no, she'd brought something. The second person was talking about this huge breakfast casserole they've been eating on for days (not a nice thing to talk about to a hungry person, just sayin...). Then, I asked the third person. He yelled back from his office that he already had a biscuit, for me. He just happened to have bought an extra egg mcmuffin for me.
Yep. God provided for me. Maybe in a way the rain this morning was His plan so I'd see He will provide. Had it not been raining I would have run with my friends, then stopped by the coffee shop where we finish and I would have gotten breakfast there.
Something I do every time I go to a Zaxby's drive-thru is pay for the next person's (or 2 sometimes...) order behind me. I don't do it every drive-thru I go through cause I just can't roll like that. But the wife and I love Zaxby's so we go there fairly frequently. I'm hoping when I do that the person behind me thinks the same thing. Dunno for sure cause as soon as they hand me back my card and I drive off with my food I high-tail it out of there just cause I think it'd feel weird to still be sitting there. But that's my hope. Today though I got to tell my friend that he got to be a part of God's plan this morning...
I know... a biscuit, and technically not a biscuit but an English muffin, isn't even a concern to God... but it's just so nice and so very comforting to know that I don't have to worry. It just blows me away how concerned He is for me.
