Now that is just silly

I mentioned to @just4him that God woke me up with a headache this morning. I was needing to be persuaded that I am making plans that are not in my best health and business interests and causing myself unneeded stress. Causing unneeded stress is just silly. Or foolish. Our business trip to Omaha will be just that. Then we will come home. God told me why I am postponing the part that goes to Minnesota. It is okay. We need to train about business, then get busy and work the business. I also need to do some stuff at home. The logistics for the cat were not going to be favorable either. Hubby had another work training come up with another job. . . all in all I came up with about six reasons that we should not go. I was just being stubborn and insisting. I do not want to be gone that long until hubby has had a recheck by the urologist. That is another big reason. Hubby had an emergency windshield repair last night. That was good. This woman had a really new car and had a rock chip. To get home from where she was she was going to have to drive gravel roads and was afraid the chip would "spider out". So hubby went and did it on the spot. So although I will be gone Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, I will not be gone an entire week. That is just silly.

You had a lot of reasons not to go. It's interesting what God uses to wake us up. I get woken with a headache a lot, especially lately. It always seems when I do, and look at the clock, it's time to get up. Then the headache goes away. My wake up call from God.

Not comfortable, but effective for sure.

I need your hubby to come and repair my chipped windshield! (Just kidding, it'll be fixed in four hours, you couldn't drive here that quickly.) I know exactly what you mean about God putting "roadblocks" up to keep us from going down roads that are full of potholes for our lives. He's done that for me (it's a blessing, so He did it for me and not "to" me) many, many times.

90% of all car insurance claims are glass related. I hope you found someone who could get it done with your insurance. Much better to fix it than to replace it. Better for your pocket book, but we would have loved to visit.

I also really appreciate that God does things "for" you and not "to" as it highlights an important truth some want to ignore.
