An early morning weekly routine... was all I had to do this morning... but I neglected to check the calendar... so I planned an impromptu late morning shopping trip... and lunch... with my daughter... no thought to an appointment made over a month ago...
On the way home... I stopped for gas... drove from the pump... and suddenly remembered the appointment...
With a gasp... I looked at my watch... 10 minutes to get there... but I was already within 100 yards of where I needed to be...
Looking back... over the many random decisions made to get to that point... if only one... had been different... I would not have been where I was... and probably would not have made the appointment... (or even remembered it...) causing inconvenience for the one I was to meet...
I don't know if this is great theology... but it feels like a picture of...
...for it is God who works in you to will
and to act according to his good purpose.
Philippians 2:13
Sometimes... He's working in us... through our will... for His purpose... even if it is to not disappoint another... because of our faithlessness...
If we are faithless, He remains faithful...
2 Timothy 2:13 NASB
Thank You Father... for Your guidance... direction... even though I was completely unaware... Thank You for Your faithfulness...
