These past few weeks and months I have sent many questions heavenward as I have searched for life answers and direction in my life. Sometimes Heavenly Father is a little slow coming with the answers or maybe I haven't recognized the answers as they have come yet. I've noticed that as I have not gotten the answers I've wanted or when I wanted, my brain takes the initiative to fill in the void. Problem is, when my brain does that it tends to come up with the best worse case scenarios!!
This week as I was walking into work I spotted a copper speck in the parking lot. I bent down to pick up the penny and remembering a story my dad shared with me years ago I asked myself, "Am I trusting God right now, this moment?"
I was so grateful for this reminder. If I am trusting in God I will not allow the questions of the future worry me so much that today becomes bitter. I will not let the questions of tomorrow rob the pleasantries of today. I will keep trusting and take everything a day at a time, a moment at a time. And as weeks, months and years go by I know as I look back I will realize that our Father in Heaven was guiding me all along.

And that's how I know you are ready for today!! =)
I've never heard Dad say that. I will forever now pick up pennies and think differently. Thanks!
