funny morning

10:30pmish last nite it occurred to me that my mum was going to spend her last day in Sydney by herself at home...and she had forgotten to buy something for someone. So I emailed my boss to see if I could work Wed instead of today. The problem was I knew she didn't work Mondays so it was a long shot that she might pop into the office.

I woke up this morning and texted her as well. Asked the LORD to let her get the message in time. But got ready for work anyway. This morning I had to catch the bus for the first time. I planned to catch the second bus so as to give my boss time to respond. But she still hadn't texted me back. So I had to rush to the bus.

The LORD was so kind to me this morning. I had to cross three roads to get to my bus stop. The first road crossing cars zoomed by just before I got there so it was clear, second crossing, the cross sign came on just as I got there, and third crossing all clear.

I got to the bus, the bus driver was having a smoke, people were already on the bus. As soon as I got there he jumped on the bus and we zoomed off. It felt like he was waiting for me.

I accepted that I had to going to work so I was keen for the bus to get their quickly. As soon as I pulled into the bus stop by work - I got a text from my boss saying that's fine I can have the day off.

That was so funny. I think the LORD was testing my faithfulness again. To see if I would still be prepared to go to work even if I didn't have the day off. Janelle texted me just in time. So I crossed the road and waited for the bus to come home.

Now I'm here. I get to spend one last day hanging out with my mum. She was pleased to have me come back. God is good.
