Thoughts to Remember

The ' L I T T L E '  Things

As you might remember, the head of a company survived 9/11

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 couldn't 

Get a taxi. 

The one that struck me was the 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 seems to be going wrong,

You can't seem to find the car keys or

you hit every traffic light,

don't get mad or frustrated;

It may be just that

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.
