I had my first car accident today.

and i hope it will be my last.... it really wasn't that bad at all...no one was hurt, my car is fine, the lady's car has a dent/scratch on it, and hopefully there will be no insurance claim....

i guess it's more the fact that i had a car accident... so off i went to work (from which i'm bloggin now)...and not in the best of moods as u can imagine... but u know what? these things happen... lol, 3 ppl have said that to me already... and i guess that makes me feel a bit better, but what am i supposed to learn from this? I must learn NOT to complain. as with everything else... complaining is horrible... who am i to complain that life is not going the way that it should be? who am i to complain that i don't deserve it, or that other people do? who am i to complain that it's not my fault??

situations are never black and white...it is not a matter of whose fault it is or if someone deserves their ill-fitted fate... i don't have the right to say that life isn't going according to my plan? why? it's not supposed to. God knows everything that is has happened to me, is happening to me, and will happen to me... and if i do in fact firmly believe that He has the best plans for me, then really, complaining is just telling God "I don't think you've got things under control" dang..now when i put it like that... complaining seems really harsh... and it is. it's easy to get into the bad habit of complaining, starting off with minor things.... the more u complain, the more bitter you become...

the question is not "why" do all these things happen to me, but it should be "how" will God use this situation to further His plan and "what" does God want to teach me? if we do not open our hearts to God during these times, embittered people will we become as our relationships with our Father weakens...

Our God is a sovereign God; there is none like Him.
