the story so far...

work related…

I’m at work right now typing out a new post, since I don’t think I will have the will to when I get home tonight. Tonight is our first softball game and it’s not starting till some time around 7pm. By getting off of work at 530pm, I basically have just enough time to drive home and back with no break inbetween.

So I decided I’d type a few things down while I’m here and discuss what has been going on since last night. More importantly, a phone call I just received.

I cannot go into details about the phone call at this time, but I will at some point in the future. It would actually be pretty bad to discuss that on here now because of specific circumstances. But anyway, I received a phone call about 215pm today when I was not really expecting one. I was actually planning on calling this person this evening during my wonderful break, but he called first. Seems like I have a meeting tomorrow evening at like 630pm, throwing a proverbial kink in the works with regards to what I had planned.

I’m always surprised by situations like this and rarely know how to properly react to them. It always seems like a mix of happiness and sorrow. And both for the same exact reason: change.

No person truly loves changes as much as they say they do. Comfort is found in the day-to-day routine even if we seem to hate and loathe it with every fiber of our being. Change brings uncertainty; which I find quite funny. Life really is uncertain. We may have a routine we follow, but at any moment that could all change due to a number of things. It seems like our entire lives hinge on routine and any change to that is akin to a bull in a china shop.

We should know that life is full of uncertainties. How are we supposed to know what is going to happen next in life? (James 4:13-16) The only certain things we truly have is God. He should and is our rock in this sea of uncertainty, when we feel like we are only tossed by the waves of life.

I know I constantly need it, being in this fleshly vessel, but please pray for me to remember what I have already written here.

Lord, you are my constant in this world of variables.
