Tripped

Sometimes my tongue gets tripped up. Sometimes I can get tripped up on a math problem. All manageable things. However, the other day while I was running, I tripped - I fell right in front of an old lady vacuuming her car. She didn't even look up to see if I was okay. I felt like a complete idiot!

I think we all need to trip every once and a while. It humbles us, brings us back to where we started from, and wakes us up all in the same moment! The day progressed into more thinking and really examining what the heck I was doing.

So even though my leg oozes, and I have a permanent band-aid mark, I'm glad I tripped... in a weird sort of way!

Isn't it wierd how God uses certain circumstances to humble us? Someties I'm like, "Really God, Really?"
