It was a stressful day on the home front, but smooth sailing at work, but you see, I know how to handle myself at work. But this morning, I thought I checked for my ID card in my wallet, which you need to be able to get on base, and when I got to the gate, it was actually my AAA Card. No problem, I thought to myself, I will just work off of the network and get a bunch of work done, they will pull me over at the gate, check my other credentials and conduct the usual vehicle standard operating procedures, and I will be on my way.
Well, the problem began when I couldn't find my updated insurance card, what the heck man! I could not find it anywhere, so the gate guard sent me packing! I have worked there for 6 years! I am a former Marine! How could he turn me away? Especially after sitting in Fallbrook traffic to get on base, where it can take thirty minutes to go just a measly 1/4 of a mile. I was not happy. I cussed as I pulled away....
Repent Clay, don't you see it is not worth getting upset over? Isn't the Air 1 verse of the day "My child, listen and be wise: Keep you heart on the right course." Proverbs 23:19 NLT.
OK God, I am over it, he was just doing his job. I can do this. I went home, couldn't find my ID, I left it at work. I had to find my insurance card so I could get back on base.
Once at work, everything went smoothly. But when it came time to get off, all hell broke loose again. I won't go into details, but I think I did OK, I had to repent a couple of times, but I don't think I fully lost it like I would have on other days. Lets hope I learn this lesson fast because I don't like being pruned.
