It was in
the summer of 1995,
I opened the
Bible to Galatians, Chapter 2,
“Trust in God."
I didn't appreciate this reading
and whined,
“Yeah, but why don’t you send me
a hundred dollar bill,
some money would really help?”
Then, fearful about rousing God's anger,
I asked for
forgiveness immediately.
Later that day,
I found a hundred dollar bill on the ground.
Besides being awestruck, I had to laugh.
"Trust in me."
My freedom comes from trusting
that God loves us, even me. |
