<\/font><\/strong><\/font>              \"clip_image001\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
As you might remember, the head of a company survived<\/strong><\/font>
9\/11 because his son started kindergarten<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i><\/font>.<\/u><\/i>
<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Another fellow was alive because it was<\/strong><\/font>
His turn to bring donuts.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One woman was late because her<\/strong><\/font>
Alarm clock didn’t go off in time.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike<\/strong><\/font>
Because of an auto accident.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One of them<\/strong><\/font>
Missed his bus.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take<\/strong><\/font>
Time to change.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One’s<\/strong><\/font>
Car wouldn’t start.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

One couldn’t<\/strong><\/font>
Get a taxi.<\/strong><\/font><\/u><\/i> <\/p>\n

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<\/u>.
That is why he is alive today..
<\/strong><\/font>\"clip_image002\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a> <\/p>\n

Now when I am
Stuck in traffic,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone…
<\/strong><\/font>All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself,
This is exactly where
God wants me to be
At this very moment..
<\/strong><\/font>\"clip_image003\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
Next time your morning seems to be
Going wrong,
You can’t seem to find the car keys,
You hit every traffic light,
Don’t get mad or frustrated;
It may be just that
God is at work watching over you.
<\/strong><\/font>\"clip_image004\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
May God continue to bless you
With all those annoying little things
And may you remember their possible purpose.
<\/strong><\/font>\"clip_image005\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
<\/font><\/font>Pass this on to someone else, if you’d like.
<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font><\/font><\/strong> <\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font>God’s Love Is Not Dependent On E-Mail or copying and forwarding messages <\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font>as I have just donel!!  <\/font>Don\u2019t\u2019 you think this is a Great Message? Meredith<\/font>
<\/strong>\"clip_image006\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
<\/font><\/font>(that’s the cool part)<\/font>
<\/strong>\"clip_image007\"<\/strong><\/font><\/a>
AMEN
