It’s just the way these things go. I’m sure you have been there. Those times you think God might be trying to tell you something?

As I mentioned yesterday I went to the DMV to practice the discipline of waiting. I waited patiently for an hour to renew my driver’s license. In September, I had renewed via the online “fast and convenient” way to renew your driver’s license. As of Yesterday morning when I went to the DMV I still had not received said license — even after two polite phone calls.

But I had just taught about using moments like these as opportunities to wait on God. So, true to my word, I went and waited.

I got my license and went back to work. I came home to have lunch with my neighbor just as the mail delivery specialist was leaving our house. I knew it would be there and I was right.

I went to retrieve the mail and there it was — my license — that had been renewed in September, promised delivery (two times) within five days and had yet to arrive. On this day, of all days, it was there in the mailbox.

Don’t tell me God doesn’t have a sense of humor!
