So I was having one of those lazy days at work. The one where you have a whole bunch of crap to do and no motivation, so like any other 21st century young adult, I resorted to IM. I ended up in a conversation with my ex (what? He was the only one who would answer me; I guess everyone else needed to work) This was not just any ex, this was THE EX, the one you swore was the one until he took your heart, stomped on it and gave the pieces back to you.. anyhoo as I was saying we were having this conversation and the more we talked the more I realized how different we were and no it was not the opposites attract kind of different. It was the I really want to throttle you right now kind.
For some strange reason, I had a sudden flashback of how things ended with us. I remember praying and crying and asking God to fix us, needless to say that prayer went unanswered and judging by the fact that I am soo glad we are no longer together, I now definitely realize that my Father indeed had a plan.
and so I decided to make a list of all my unanswered prayers (I did say I was bored didn’t I?) and what do you know? EVERY single situation I could think of worked out eventually and for the better if I may add.
So the lesson for the day is whatever dire situation you seem to find yourself in today will definitely work out, God has a plan.
I GUARANTEE IT!!
In other news, tomorrow I am having oral surgery to have my wisdom teeth taken out, I really don’t know what to expect since I have heard so many conflicting stories, some say little or no pain other say mucho pain, please pray for me that I fall into the little or no pain category.
VOTD
And we know that in all things
God works for the good of those who love him,
who have been called according to his purpose.
Romans 8 :28

I was expecting to see a detailed list of all the prayers that was never answered. Oh and the surgery wont hurt that much but it will hurt like crap if it gets infected. Mine did. Although I took all 4 out at once. Geez I thought I was going to die! It sucked ass. Water would just poor out of your mouth without even trying! arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Now you make the part of the Bible that says “all things work together for good to those who love God…” come to life!!!
Hope the oral surgery went well…like Temite, I was also expecting to see that list lol!
When I look back at life, I thank God for those prayers He did not answer. They always turned out to be for good.
The wisdom tooth thing shall be according to what you want...painless I guess?
I believe that if something is not meant to be for you, it won't be for you. Can I get an amen?
Yes o, God will work all situations out. I never lose hope.
Awwww, g'luck on the wisdom tooth. I've never gotten one taken out but I heard it hurts.
Thank guys, i figured a list of all my unanswered prayers will be TMI, no?
I survived the surgery and i am mostly ok, as long as i dont speak, which if you know me is a problem in itself :)
I had my wisdom tooth removed too and it didn't hurt so bad. Glad to know yours was okay too.
Sometimes we want something so bad, we'd pledge anything but it's only in hindsight that we see we were better off without it.
God surely does have His ways, I always pray for patience to wait and see it through!
