MY NEWBIE IS SHOWING

God Drives me nuts

God drives me nuts. He sent hail on Sunday. Little quarter size pieces of ice to pound on the roof and bounce off cement pavement and packed ground to shatter into tiny pieces. Incredible. The first thing I did was wipe down the car to see if there were any dents or shattered glass. And there were none. That's what drives me nuts. Little bit of irritation to make me wonder what I did to deserve this nonsense, and then no damage to make me appreciate that He spared me that financial burden.





I suppose the technology that made the cars hail resistent is a gift from God. I suppose being so bone weary that i just wanted to stay home and vegetate so that I was not out in that stuff finishing all the errands and not being caught in that mess was also a gift from God.





Watching that hail bounce off pavement, cement and things was amazing. The hail would hit the ground and shards and splinters of ice would rebound up. Being able to appreciate the beauty in something so potentially destructive is also a gift from God.





One day i might figure all this out. For right now, God drives me nuts.
