And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:

A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH

A Conversation for Today

Me (in a tizzy) : God, can I ask you something?

GOD : Sure.

Me: Promise you won't get mad?
...

GOD : I promise.

Me (frustrated): Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?

GOD : What do you mean?

Me : Well I woke up late,

GOD : Yes

Me : My car took forever to start,

GOD : Okay....

Me (growling): At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait

GOD : Hmmmm..

Me: On the way home, my phone went dead, just as I picked up a call

GOD : All right

Me (loudly): And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in my foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?

GOD: Well let me see..... the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that.

Me (humbled): Oh...

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that might have hit you if you were on the road

Me (ashamed): ............

GOD : The first person who made your sandwich today was sick and I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work

Me (embarrassed): Oh.....

GOD : Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered

Me (softly): I see God

GOD : Oh and that foot massager, it had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.

Me : I'm sorry God.

GOD : Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me.........in all things, the good and the bad

Me : I WILL trust you God

GOD: And don't doubt that my plan for your day is always better than your plan

Me : I won't God. And let me just tell you God, thank you for everything today.

GOD : You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I love looking after my children.
