God has a great sense of humor!

This a repost from my old myspace blog, I'll be working some of these in from time to time, enjoy!

I love getting to know the Lord with every experience I go thru and I know He has a hand in it. There are so many aspects to His character and I learn something new all the time. One part of His character that I think people have no idea about is his sense of humor!! Yes, He does have one and I'll prove it to ya. When I was about to get married, all the stress was giving me the worst case of acne. I was SO afraid that I would have these horrible zits on my wedding day that I started praying fervently that my face would clear up for my wedding DAY and look good in my pictures. (I know it's vain and selfish, but come on, it was MY WEDDING!) Well He answered my prayer and just in time my pizza face cleared up and my complexion was great........until my wedding NIGHT, that is. I as getting ready for bed and the nastiest zit popped up right under my nose! GROSS!! All I could do was laugh because, after all, I didn't say anything about my wedding NIGHT in my prayer. That was my first awareness of His humor and have noticed it since from time to time...............especially today.

Today I had somewhere to be and not enough time to get there so as usual I was speeding--until I got behind a SLOW POKE!! "Oh great, I don't have time for this!" I mean, he was like going 40 for crying out loud!! So I was trying to figure out when would be a good time to pass when I saw a car coming. As it got closer, I recognized that it was a cop!! I thanked God profusely and thanked Him for sticking me behind that slow poke, because I know I would've been going 80 and gotten a ticket. After a few minutes I got antsy again and wanted to pass and actually said aloud, "I can speed now, what are the odds I'll see another cop?" Right then, what do I see but ANOTHER COP! "Ha ha, very funny, God" Finally that slow poke turns off and I'm free to go as fast as I want but I'm scared--although SURELY I wouldn't see another cop....would I? When I start to get a little faster a MENNONITE pulls out in front of me on a tractor! (oh come on!!) There was nowhere I could pass him so I just had to poke along behind, getting later and later.....when there goes his blinker, YIPPEE! he's turning! But he had to wait for an oncoming car before he could turn......I see it and don't believe my eyes, OH YES, it is yet ANOTHER cop!! (count'em, that's 3 cops in less than 3 miles) I DIED laughing, "OK big guy, you got me!" I swear I heard Him snicker.......

He cares about the small stuff and is always taking care of me. If you keep your eyes open, you can see Him working and even get a good laugh now and then.
