Is the world conspiring against me to make me miss M even more, or what??
Let me explain.
So far today, four things have happened to make me think of my best friend who died in 2008.
1) I caught the tail end of “Stand in the Rain” on the radio on my way to school this morning. This is one of the songs I associate with M, and that weekend of losing her.
2) At school, I bought lunch. When I looked at the expiration date on my milk, I noticed it said March 12, 2011. The 12th (of November) is the day M died.
3) When I got into my car after school, “Cinderella” was just finishing. ‘Cause I know something the prince never knew. I will dance with Cinderella, I don’t want to miss even one song. ‘Cause all too soon, the clock will strike midnight and she’ll be gone.
4) After a couple other songs, the radio decided to play Mandisa’s “Stronger“. I think that kinda speaks for itself.
Oh, and right now, I realized that on Sunday, we’re singing “Rescue“. That was also on the radio this afternoon.
I feel like this is a sign of some sort.
I might just be imagining it or over-analyzing or something, but…
I also just read that during Communion on Sunday, we’re incorporating forgiveness??
This week’s sermon is I Believe in God–But Don’t Go Overboard.
I feel like it’s going to be a little bit like this post…
That would actually be pretty cool.
I just have to figure out WHY.
WHY am I being reminded of M?
Perhaps it has something to do with last night’s youth group topic?
Hmmm… We’ll have to see. Maybe Jesus is nudging me with this stuff for a reason.
Guess I might figure it out on Sunday, huh?
Just me said:
Linking my post? Awesome! Thank you! 🙂
One thing I’ve been really challenged about lately is trusting in God’s timing. Patience is haaaaaaarrrrrd when we want the answers right here, right now. But God’s timing is a zillion times better than ours. (see *this* post! – http://gettingoutofmyboat.blogspot.com/2010/12/everything-in-its-time.html)
