I didn't feel much like a servant today. I admit that I got annoyed a few times...at others, at myself, at what did/did not happen today. I've become somewhat convicted at my irritation at someone "in my way" today. They didn't know they were in the way. They had every right to be in the same physical location as I did. I had to wait a few minutes before they moved so I could get to what I needed. It was an interruption, but who says my life should be free of them? Why are my plans any more special than those of this lady? She wasn't being rude...she was just going about her business, having no idea I needed to get to something she was in front of. She moved in a few minutes and I got my things and went on my way. So I'm thankful for conviction--for the Holy Spirit reminding me to stop letting life be all about me. Of course, that's an ongoing lesson!
