    Thumbs up Something to think about next time your running late....

    I have always been one to frustrate really easy if I or someone I am with or meeting is running late. For some reason it just really bugs me and I can sometimes get so mad. I got this e-mail for a good friend today and it made me think that maybe I shouldn't get mad when people are late or I am running late because there is most likely a reason behind it......

    ---------------------------------------
    For those of you who hate to be late think about this. I use to always be early or right on time until one day everything that could go wrong did. I was so mad that I rushed even more as to not be to late. On my way to work I saw a big accident and not everyone was lucky enough to make it. I later found out that the time of the accident was roughly the same time I would have been there. "My God", I thought to myself, "That could have be me!"

    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.

    Next time your morning seems to be going wrong, the children are slow getting dressed, you can't seem to find the car keys, you hit every traffic light, don't get mad or frustrated; God is at work watching over you.

    May God continue to bless you with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose.

    Pass this on to someone else, if you'd like. There is NO LUCK attached. If you delete this, it's okay: God's Love Is Not Dependent On E-Mail.

    That's a good thing to think about.

    Thank you Kat. We too have been been delayed for one reason or another and just missed being where there have been serious accidents had we been running on time.
