Only God

One day, a few years back, while living in Honduras, I was having a particularly hard day. I felt unloved and lonely, and so distraught and hopeless that it wasn't my husband filling those needs. So I prayed. I begged God to fill my selfish, human longing to feel loved. I received a phone call. My best friend Dina, of very humble economic status, called to invite me to go downtown with her to have a taco at Mexi-Taco. So I went. Dina shyly and with many embarrassed laughs shared how much she appreciated me and our friendship. And as I was sitting there, crunching away, I was struck like a bolt of lightening. God had just answered my prayer, and I was filled to the brim with love! It didn't happen in a way that I expected it, and it far exceeded my expectations! And it was lovely! Yesterday, after so many mishaps and feeling almost at death's door with a swollen throat and body aches, I prayed. I said God, surely you can make something better out of my day! And I loaded up on ibuprofren, sipped my tea, and went to bed. And today God answered. Not in any way I would've expected or could even dream up! And it is lovely!

Thanks, guys. Only God could've done it this way...He knew Azteca was one of my favorite places...
