Is that all you've got?

My main focus for the last several weeks has been ME! Not in a good way. I wished I could say I finally decided to take care of myself by exercising and eating right. No, this is clearly the wrong kind of ME. We are trying to sell our house in FL and can not do much of anything but sit as a family in our apartment in AR and wait. All I have thought about is what if, maybe, and pretty much, POOR POOR PITIFUL ME. I did the right thing. I gave it over to God and decided this could put me over the edge. It was already settling in and trying to keep me in the bed. So, I said, "Lord, this isn't my burden to carry it is yours and I am going to let you take care of it." There. Done. Everytime the thought came to my mind, I just prayed about it. The problem was, it kept coming over and over and over. "Lord, please do something about my house." , I prayed. "God, I know you are going to send the right people." Then finally on Thursday the phone rang. "House Showing!!", appears on my caller id. "How cool is that?" I wondered, "I was just praying about that while talking to the realtor and examining my competition. " Well it was then that the Spirit of God spoke to me and said, "Christy, that is all you have talked to me about for weeks," That was no coincidence. "Is that all you've got?" It hit me like a ton of bricks. could you think about someone else for a change? You have friends with their requests and supplications, there are children dying in Africa, a new president.....could you just think of anyone except yourself? WOW! In one way, that call on Thursday was no doubt a call of hope from the Father. But at the same time it was a wake up call! Gently, He reminded me there is more going on than ME and MY house. Thank you God for that sweet reminder.
