Last night at work a friend gave me an extra fortune cookie he had from his dinner. I opened it up ( because fortune cookies are fun) and here is what the little note said:
"Unexpected romantic and financial gifts surprise and delight you!"
When I saw that I had to laugh a little. Do I expect those things? Well, I am certainly not counting on them. Do I want those things? Yes, in God's timing if He allows it. I look back and reflect on the last few weeks and all of the different things I have been thinking and praying about. It's normal for a girl in my position to hope for both romance and finance someday. But what good is it for me to worry about if I will ever have those things? None. Now all I can say is this: My future is in God's hands, and there is no better place it could be. I am waiting on the Lord.
On the back of the paper it also taught me how to say " Banana" in Chinese:
Xiang-jiao
Though I don't see that as quite as significant, maybe it will be someday.
Please leave comments, prayer requests, anything. God bless.
