Rolled Oats

Sometimes God interrupts your life because He has something to say

March 7

I was asked to lead our life group in a discussion of Experiencing God tonight. I spent a good part of today preparing. I was a little nervous. I have been leading a class on Wednesday night, but we are on different chapters and it is a very different format. I knew once we got going It would be fine, but I’m still a little shaky. I went to the kitchen to make a dessert to bring tonight and realized I had no Rolled oats! How did that happen? So, off to the store. Now I'm feeling a little more anxious. I hadn't planned on spending time going to the store. When I get in the car I start to talk to God. I tell Him, I trust Him with the timing. Then I ask Him where this nervousness is coming from. He tells me it is because they are family, and I don't want to let them down. I don’t want to disappoint. We have such a great life group, so I know it will be okay. I pray a prayer of surrender until I mean it and peace has come. It turned out to be a great night. God in the details. If I hadn't stopped, and gone to the store, I would not have asked Him the question. I would not have heard from God or surrendered the night. Thank you God, for no rolled oats.
