Dear chosen one,

That’s not a frustrating slow line.
That’s not an ill-timed car pool traffic jam.
That’s not an inconvenient help request.
Thats not a delayed appointment in the waiting room.
That’s not a broken credit card machine at the check-out.
That’s not an annoying phone call about a mistake on the bill.
That’s not an unfair traffic stop.
That’s not a selfish child interrupting your daydream at the park.
That’s not a request for spare change.

It’s an opportunity for the gospel.

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. – Galatians 5:16

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. – Romans 12:2
