Today, at 10:03AM local time, I felt God calling to me as God always calls to all of us.
"Dress in plain clothing and go to the circle K and get three things: Green Naked Juice, a bag of Lays Potato Chips, and Red Gatorade."
Immediately, I leapt from my chair and rushed to get my things, but before that, I paused.
For God had said plain clothing, but which plain clothing?
So, I asked, "God almighty, which combination of clothing should I wear?"
Without hesitation, God made it known to me precisely what must be worn and how. From clothing to accessories. I rushed to collect them, but I could not find my pants!
Frantically, I looked around to no avail, worried that I would miss my calling from God, that I would fail to act on his word properly. I only found my pants when I slowed down, paused, and then emptied my mind of worry.
It was then that I God told me, "My child, why were you worried so? Did you think that you would not arrive at the exact time and place that you needed to be? That I would not put you there as I commanded you there to be?"
My Lord, yes, I was worried. My Faith had faltered because I believed, for many moments, that time had reign over your commands. As I lay myself prone to your infinite Wisdom, I am made all the better.
With this in mind, I asked God many more questions.
God told me to bring my headphones, so I asked what music I should listen to. God replied, "Come All Ye Weary by Thrice".
God told me that I only other things I should bring are my phone and my wallet.
I was told to collect the money that my loved one gave me for rent, and put it in my wallet.
So, I asked God in what way does he want it assembled? I closed my eyes and allowed God to arrange the bills as God saw fit, then I put the bills inside of my wallet.
God told me to leave my door unlocked and so I did. I did not wonder why. It did not cross my mind that if I did not bring my keys, I couldn't unlock my door. The why did not matter, only the Command, for the Command is the Word of God and the Word of God Commands all as the Mind of God discerns and God Creates and Manifests and Is All and Everything; praise be to God and God's only begotten Son.
As I was leaving, I was instructed to listen to the song, just as I am instructed to post it here from youtube.
I asked if it was Good for me to sing the song as well and God told me that it was.
Without worry, I walked to the Circle K because I was following the Word of God and thus, the Word of God continued to speak to me and instruct me.
As I walked past a truck that looked as if it was going to pull out, I looked and saw that it did not have a driver.
I took note of it naturally, a simple observer who makes more distinctions, only what God chooses to illuminate for me.
Yet, as I walked past, I heard a sharp beep as if from a horn coming from behind me.
I turned towards the direction and the truck was still there, still without a driver.
On the side, however, it read:
"Victory Packaging
We are ARCHITECTS of Packaged Solutions!"
I smiled, for I understood that this was a message that God intended for me to see. I continued, singing the song. Unimpeded, I went to the gas station, collected the items and as I paid for them, the amount was easily paid for by a single bill.
Yet, I considered as I paused and fanned the bills quickly: God had told me to bring many bills. Is there a specific one I should use? Before I paid with the most obvious, I paused and asked God if it was the right decision.
And just as God has said, "Yes." when I asked if I should recount this Truth to you, God said, "Yes." Then, too.
I gave the man the bill, turned to the man behind me and said hello, then walked off with my goods in tow.
As I made my way back home, I had to cross two crosswalks. Along the first, a very old woman was walking across the street with a cane. She hobbled to across and she was very far away from me.
Quickly as I could, possessed with Good intent to help this woman cross the street safely, I ran up to her.
Yet, when I caught up to her, she was already across the street. I considered, possibly, that she would need help crossing the adjacent street and then, perhaps, I can be her companion across to help stack the "odds" in her favor.
("Stacking the odds" is a mocking term, too. It means "to collect to imbalance" since odd numbers cannot be divisible into whole numbers therefore, outside of Unity from God.)
But instead of standing at the corner, she went to the nearby bus stop. Still unsure, I took a couple steps forward and then the woman sat down. I looked up and I saw the numbers in the bust stop covering:
Stop:
#11440
Great or small, whatever decision that we are faced with, we can consult God at any time to know what is a Good decision.
