1617 Why is this happening to me?

Rebekah asked God this question (Gen.25:22). So in modern Bible studies you are asked this too, "When did you last wonder something similar?" So I thought and thought, and realized, I hadn't asked this in a long, long time. I think it is age. You realize if you're not going to ask "why" about the blessings, you ought to shut up about the rest. Anyway, faced with a blank place in the notebook, I wrote:

Shoulda
Coulda
Woulda
at my age would be odd.

There's no
reason
now for me
to second guess my God.

Norma, your age must be close to mine...I don't bother with coulda, woulda, shoulda anymore. I'm just glad to start my day.

Just think of the hours we wasted, Bonita.
