Wish for what you have

I had some kind of revelation tonight. I was here writing a post about something-or-other. Trying to focus my thoughts. Feeling a little selfish, and a little lonely, and wishing a little that things were different. Only a little, though. Then I realized, God had a plan when he brought me here, far away from all my friends. He had my good in mind when he decided I should remain single, even though he knew it would be hard, at times, to be surrounded by friends getting married and starting new lives that I couldn’t relate to. And, God has a plan even now as he begins to surround me with new friends, so I won’t feel so lonely; continued grace for when I’m being selfish; and the revelation to wish things were exactly how they are. I am lucky to belong to such a God.
