God Sighting | October 13, 2008

My days as of late had begun to look rather routine and monotonous. They usually look like this: Wake up. Gym. Computer Lab. Programming. Lunch. Programming. Home. Sleep. (Talk about having a groundhog day!)

So yesterday I asked God if I could have an extraordinarily different day today. And boy, was it different.

Different #1: Woke up at 10:30AM as opposed to 7:30AM because my alarm didn't go off. I had left my normal alarm (my cell phone) at a friend's house the night before. From the very beginning, the day started of different, and it was completely out of my control!

Different #2: Received (and replied to) two messages, one through email and one through facebook, about questions pertaining to the Bible.

Different #3: Made lunch at home. And enjoyed it.

Different #4: Arrived at the church campus (where I've been working on a graphics portfolio for the last umpteenth weeks) to find Brian, a friend who I work with, throwing away a truck full of computer gadgets, as well as an acoustic guitar. I am now enjoying that guitar, along with countless other cool computer widgets.

Different #5: Mom called and asked if I wanted to get frozen yogurt with her. I went.

Different #6: Sister showed up at the yogurt place with one of her classmates, who also happened to be our neighbor down the street. Great conversation ensued.

Different #7: Helped a friend plan an event.

Different #8: Had zero time to work on coding the flash portfolio I'd been working on, and didn't care; the entire day was such a blessing.

There you have it. A completely different day, all because God wanted to show that He cares. =)
