U-Turns, Flips, and Twists

So today continued our pursuit for a place to live.  We did not hear back from our realtor lady until this afternoon where she told us that she still had not heard anything about the place in Davie where we placed an offer. I have a feeling that we did not get it so tomorrow we will keep looking at more places in different areas--possibly closer to the beach! 


While we have been on this apartment hunt, one thing that I have noticed down here in Florida is the excessive amount of U-turns that people do!! They make medians so that people can make U-turns and it just baffles me! I will admit that I have caved and done a few of them because their medians are so stinking long so I can't turn left where I want to ergo making the U-turn.  I just think it's funny that the medians are designed for u-turns down here.  Then, being me, I wondered, have I done any U-turns with my life before? Started going one day, decided that was not the right way and flipped around to go back to where I came from.  Just my deep thought for the day. 


I did get a chance to spend some time in the sisters' adoration chapel today which was nice.  I eventually ended up on the floor as I normally do in adoration chapels.  It was peaceful to spend some time with God in that way because I always loved going to adoration in Emporia and made it a point to just sit in our chapel when I could. 


One last thing before I go to sleep.  As many of you know, I am a big country music fan.  A song that I am a huge fan of is "This" by Darius Rucker.  It talks about how every little decision we have made up to this point in our lives has shaped what is currently happening in our lives; I definitely believe that is true.  God has planned our lives so meticulously that each small decision has affected us.  So today or tonight, whenever you finish reading this, think and look back on all the moments in your life when you thought you were making a huge mistake or any decision and then thank God for those moments.  There are so many moments in our lives that we think will change so much and they do but God always has a reason for things happening the way they do, even if we do not see it at the time.  I am definitely not one to talk because I am really hoping that God leads us to some amazing beach house tomorrow! ha ha. But I do want you to think about that when you have a chance.  You would not be at this exact point in your life if there weren't a few U-turns, twists, and flips along the way. 


Good night everyone and thank you for whatever impact you have had on my life. I would not be here if not for you.
