When things fall into place...

I love when things work themselves out. 
Its not that I don't try to work them out, it is just some things I
let be

Michael and I were talking during our lunch breaks about the gas prices about a month ago. 
Both of us commute, so it's a hot topic in our conversations.  Michael being the smart guy he is, figures out how much more money it will cost us per month if gas hits $5. Let me just tell you....you don't want to know the figure. I hadn't even started to eat my lunch during this conversation and I was already sick. 
Sick about the figure he came up with.

 We proceeded with the conversation then, I said " I don't really want to talk about it."  
Now, I know that is a very grown-up way to handle it (haha),
 but Michael knows me and says "Ok, I've got to go anyway." 
(Disclaimer: the above comments were not said in anger or frustration. 
I just really didn't want to think about it at that time!)

Well I did think about it a little more during lunch, but when I got back to work, I put it aside. 

I put it aside for a good while with my "let it be" philosophy. 

God has a way of timing and working things out, oh so smoothly.
A relative of Michael's passed away the next week and I went to the visitation with my parents (Michael wasn't home yet...we commute remember?). I ended up seeing a friend from middle school/high school. We talked....found out we have multiple things in common. Even distantly kin? Yes, you know my family is huge! 
She commutes also, to an office that is about a 5 minutes from where I work.
All of that said = carpooling!

Not everything works out, but some things will if you just let it be and let God take care of it.
If it is supposed to be, then it will be.

Amen! Sometimes things just aren't worth worrying about. I take the Scarlet O'Hara approach often. God knows our needs even before we ask for them. Pray and wait......
