[willowbrook] Annoying Things?

[John Price]

After Sept. 11th, I happened to call a man on business
whom I didn't know and haven't, nor will probably ever,
talk to again. But on this particular day, he felt like
talking. He was the head of security for a company that
had invited the remaining members of another company who
had been decimated by the attack on the Twin Towers to
share their office space.

With his voice full of awe he told me stories of why these
people were alive and their counterparts were dead.  In
the end, all the stories were just about the little things
that happen to us: You might know, the head of the company
got in late that day because his son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring
donuts. There were other stories that I hope and pray will
someday be gathered and put in a book. 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.

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."

May God continue to bless you with all those "annoying"
things.

Never drive faster than your angels can fly!

Happy moments, praise God.

Difficult moments, seek God.

Quiet moments, worship God.

Painful moments, trust God.

Every moment, thank God.

God Bless You All
