Traffic and Worship

Sometimes God speaks loudest to me in the sheer incongruities of life.

On the way into work this morning I dropped some bills off at the post office, which required a left turn from a fairly busy 4-lane street. Unfortunately, the driver three cars ahead of me - apparently deciding that he really really had to have a parking spot right at the entrance - stopped right in the middle of the parking lot entry and waited for a spot to open up.

Minutes passed. Literally.

By the time a good enough spot opened up for him, there were four of us in line to enter the post office lot by turning left, with three others coming from the opposite direction waiting to turn right.

Meanwhile, playing in my car from my iPod, I've got Chris Tomlin singing:
See the heavens open up
Hear the music coming down
Nothing's gonna separate us from the Father's love...


It was a good reminder - although love was not what I was feeling in my heart at that moment.
