God’s sense of humor
I pray for everything...even finding a parking spot. It really feels good to be constantly talking to God. I talk to him so much to a point where I feel his sense of humor. Yes! I hear him "joking" with me sometimes. Here’s one instance: It’s really hard finding a parking spot at Chabot College in the morning. On my first day of class, it took me 45 minutes trying to find a parking spot! So the next day, I came even earlier to allot extra time looking for a spot. I told myself, "c’mon Imelda you can do this. You can find a parking spot". After 20 minutes of circling I finally remembered to start praying and ask God to help me find a spot. And I did find one shortly after. This reminded me not to rely on my own powers and to involve God even in what seems to be a small thing. After all nothing is too big or too small to God. So then the next time I came, I remembered to pray right away. I asked, "God please let a parking spot open up". A parking spot did open up but it wasn’t for me but for another car. Can you see God’s humor here? I can hear Him saying to me: "Imelda, my dear child, you just asked for a spot to open up but you didn't specify for whom". I think it was also His way of reminding me to pray for others too. God gave me my very own special spot shortly after close to where I needed to go:)
