I missed it.
Posted : 23 Feb, 2010 03:58 PM
I was so stressed out today.
Oh the joy of being a Freshman in college and still not knowing how to do anything!
Well, With my luck, I missed a very important test last week, I didn't do an important assignment over the weekend, and I lost my Student ID card.
Well, Today.
I realized I actually lost my card. Already stressed about grades, I was cussing and banging things, just so angry at myself.
The cussing ceased. I promise. Haha.
Anyways I went back up to school and tried to get a new card made. Turns out that our main school server decided to be down for maintenance today. So, no ids could be made.
Freaked out, because my ID is basically my whole life on a card, I head back to my car, and someone I know stops me.
Already frazzled, I was trying to hurry up the conversation by giving very short, very...well....rude, answers.
I knew in the back of my head I had plenty of time to stand there and talk to them about what was going on in their life, but all I could think about was me.
I missed it. God gave me the opportunity to slow down, breathe, and just talk to them, and listen to what they had to say, as they were obviously upset by something.
I missed it. I was too sucked up in this temporary world of worry, anger, and stress that I couldn't see the light in front of me.
I missed it. I missed the chance to share the gospel with someone I KNEW had NEVER heard the truth before.
I missed it.
Have you missed it?
Are you going to miss it?
Don't miss it!!
Don't let the temporary outweigh the eternal.
I guess the saying is true. Just stop every know and then and "smell the roses."
