God's Not A Genie.

   I was getting ready today and while putting in a contact dropped it in a sink full of soap bubbles that hadnt drained yet. I said God pleases help me here I dont want my day to start like this and have places to be. I reached my hand in and pulled out. My contact in my hand. No joke. I drove to downtown Flag in a hurry and prayed God please help me find a place to park really close so I can not be late. Only one open spot was available. Right by the door. Two for two. I like that.

   Later in the day I thought Id try again.... I asked this time for some help over more important things, life situations that really matter........

Two times evidently was my max for the day.

I was really hoping for that third "granted request".  But afterall Gods not a Genie. He's God.  Seriously tho, He answers how he sees best for the better of us and not just to answer. His blessings come in many different ways and more than 3's.   Reaslistically if you stop to take a look at all the requests weve asked even in just a years time I bet you'd be suprised at the amount of good responses you've gotten. The good ones however...the big requests that really matter, take a little longer it seems. For many reasons we don't or wont, cant or maybe even shouldnt know. Even tho Ill be honest thats not what I want to hear. I literally hate that. That thought alone actually drives me nuts.

For whatever reason tho it has to be worth the wait. Its more than obscene to think otherwise. I keep telling myself to remember  that God is ultimately in control in all circumstances even when it doesnt seem like in any way shape or form. To be honest a lot of the times that seems pretty often to me. But I, like you, am learning.
