I Don't Get It!!

Tonight for some reason I have been pondering on things that I just don't understand. As I get older there are more and more things that tend to come up in this category. Really that is another thing I don't understand, if you get wiser with age why do you end up with more questions instead of answers? Anyway just to help get things off my chest and for kicks and giggles I thought I would allow you a glimpse into my crazy mind of things I just don't get.

1) Why is it that a guy will call you out of the blue. You have an amazing conversation for 2 hours. They ask if they can call you again but almost a week later haven't? (Okay there are alot of reasons for that, I actually had a friend fall off a ladder and get a bad concussion last week and that is why I didn't hear from him for over a week.)

2) Why do little kids fight taking a nap so hard and yet adults always want a nap and rarely get to take one? Or why am I staying up this late when I am actually tired?

3) Why does God seemingly wait until the last minute before He comes through? He always comes through and yet I always hit that panic period right before it happens. (I need a roommate badly because Kathy is moving out this weekend and in the last two days I have had 2 possibilities and a way to cover rent until one is final. God is so Good!)

4) Why must I always do everything with an "All or Nothing" mentality? Why is it so hard for me to find a balance in life to prevent myself from burning out?

5) Why is it I can gain 5 pounds over night and then it takes me over a week to get that back off?

Okay so all these questions are pretty random and now that I have written them down, quite stupid. Yet, there are many, many more where those came from. I guess it is kind of like the old "Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?" questions. Things that I am never really going to know the answer to and even if I did I would never completely understand.

The amazing part is that I can find comfort in the fact that God knows the answers. His ways are better than my ways and His thoughts higher than mine. My feeble brain can't even begin to comprehend just how amazing God's love is for us. And yet all I want to do is to desire to know more each and every day. I want to fall more and more in love with my Savior every moment. And even with my stupid questions about life, God still desires to impart His wisdom into my life.
