The Little Things
"As you might remember, the head of a company survived 9/11 because his son started kindergarten and he was late getting to work at the Twin Towers. Others lived too because they were “late” getting to work that day.
One man is alive because it was his turn to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her alarm clock didn't go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike because of an auto accident.
One of them missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.
One's car wouldn't start.
One couldn't get a taxi.
The one that struck me was the man who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot… He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why these people are alive today...
Now when I am
Stuck in traffic ,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone ...
I think to myself, this is exactly where God wants me to be at this very moment.
