If you know Harry Potter, then you know that they deliver messages by owl. It's a unique and refreshing way to receive messages and letters, but there's no one more creative in sending messages than God.
I was sleepy, and having difficulty staying awake, so I watched TV instead. I can't sleep yet because I still feel full from eating lunch. So I surfed through the numerous channels and finally landed on Oprah. I forgot it's almost time for my afternoon Oprah. I don't like the topic, I don't like the guest, so I almost flipped it to the next channel when Oprah said something that made me start.
"One thing I learned about God, is that when you finally GET the lesson, it will stop."
I will not go through lengths on how that is like a light bulb moment for me. I know and believe with all my heart that everything happens for a reason. I know all that. I also trust Him with my life, with my frequent whining and complaining of course. What I realized today, that I should have realized years ago when I learned to trust Him, was that He those 'reasons' may be lessons in disguised. And I just keep asking Him why, and complain and be envious and be negative about it when I should be looking to myself and go down on my knees to pray so that I'll know what lesson He's trying to tell me.
Well, at least this is the first step.
About the lesson, I have notions on what it could be, and I've already been trying to convince myself to believe it. Maybe with His help, I'll finally be able to believe and thereby learned that very difficult lesson.
An owl post from Him definitely comes at the right time, and when we needed it the most.
