So I have to say though most people enjoy Fridays because its the weekend and for many college students its party time for me this Friday was more of a flustering brain dead test day. And some thoughts and special little gifts were given.
The chaos began when at 11pm Thursday evening when I realized that I had potentially lost a master key to a city building, NOT a good thing. So after searching my apartment I came to the conclusion that it was not there. So I wake up at five hoping that someone will get to work a little early to let me in praying that I would find my key in the parking lot or in the driveway. I didn't find my key in either of these places which in all reality was a very good thing. It was sitting rather nicely on the desk in the guard office.
A restless night was Thursday's. First of the semester and it didn't have to do with school. I was fearful that I was going to get fired or I would not get everything done in time and just plan freaking out that I was late. When it came down to it though its 5:30 in the morning... 5:50am by the time in the building... who in the world would be up that early to fire me for not having a key? plus! I could get all the necessary things done for the pool in that 10 minutes.
Soo... it got even more interesting when I was just finishing up the pool duties and decided to drop the end of the buoy line on my toe and it started bleeding at large. Oh morning craziness! I still don't understand how that worked :P
The ironic -thing about this whole situation is that on Wednesday night I decided to start memorizing Romans 8:28-39 (I think) and the first verse goes like this
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.
So Thursday rather then freaking out about my key I simply could have remembered that good wanted something good to come out of this ordeal. And something good did happen :) My toe bled. I know kinda funny huh? Glad that my toe decided to bleed. Well I will explain why...
WARNING! this could get somewhat graphic for those who are not huge fans of the subject.
Anywho! So there was a couple of minutes that it took for me to get a band aid on before I could go clean up the deck where I hurt my toe. When I went over there it was really cool to see how my blood had already clotted (at least I think it did) around the edges. To contain its self. Now God could have made blood that way so it would be easier to clean up I don't know. OR he created it for us to look at and marvel at the mystery and beauty of the human body. Thinking about how there were living cells on the deck that God created to feed my muscles oxygen and other important nutrients. It was really neat to think about. God shows up in amazing ways each day to bless, encourage and challenge us to remember who he is!
