Steve's Destiny
The little things that drive us crazy. 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; think about this.
After Sept. 11th, one company invited the remaining
members of other companies who had been decimated by
the attack on the Twin Towers to share their available office
space.
At a morning meeting, the head of
security told stories of why these people were
alive...... and all the stories were just 'little' things.
As 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.
One woman was late because her alarm clock didn't go
off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
because of an auto accident.
One missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time
to change.
One's car wouldn't start
One went back to answer the telephone.
One had a child that dawdled and didn't get ready as
soon as he should have.
One couldn't get a taxi.
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 today.
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
little things and may you remember their possible purpose.
