Life
has been really hard lately. I don’t want to just rant on tumblr and feel sorry for myself, but it has. My new job is really stressing me out, unfortunately. But God taught me something today.
I was about to do my laundry tonight, and I have to walk down the hall to the laundry room to do so. So I put on my sweatpants that I wear for just lounging around, and looked for my laundry card so I could pay for the machine. And I could not find it anywhere, I tore my apartment apart. After a certain level of frustration, I said in my head, “GOD PLEASE I NEED MY LAUNDRY CARD RIGHT NOW!”
Instantly, I looked down, reached into my sweatpants pocket. Boom, laundry card.
What is the greater lesson for me to learn in this?
When I ran around trying to find my laundry card, it was to no avail. I might have ended up buying a new one or something. But when I asked God for help, He helped me. He just wants me to ask Him for help!
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
When things get hard with my job, I need to ask Him for help. Or I will just keep running around trying to figure things out, to no avail.
