Did I need to see God

do something big? That's SU's theory.
Let me back up a minute. I've been struggling with something at the plantation, something that I really thought would force me to move to a different plantation. Which would be fine in normal circumstances but not in a forced way. That has happened before and, while truly a blessing in the end, was very hard for me to handle at first. And on top of the one big thing, another thing cropped up that was sure to push me over the edge.
And then...nothing. The one big thing seemingly worked itself out without major negative consequences. Nothing. Now, I'm not one to exaggerate, just isn't my thing. The one big thing would, in 99% of the cases I've faced, have resulted in severe negative consequences, particularly if I were the one making the decision. But...nothing. Just a short time delay. That's it.
And the second one, well, I'm not one to believe in miracles but I do believe that God, in His wisdom, in His time, intervenes when He wishes.
Add the two up and perhaps SU is correct. I needed to see God in a big way. I'm still pretty gabberflasted by the entire ordeal and don't understand it at all. And still thinking that it isn't real, that tomorrow I'll have to deal with it.
Except...it isn't there. Very strange.
