Universal Life Church

Let me tell you a funny story about asking God what else can happen to me.  This a true story and I have the scar to prove it.  Last Summer I went fishing in shorts and t-shirt.  I parked my car off the side of the road on a creek (stream outside the South).  It is about 8 feet across and 2" to 20' deep (in the holes).  I parked about 10 yards above the creek on a bank off the road.  I was fishing at a small waterfall and hooked into a large fish.  I tripped over my tackle box sending the contents into the creek. Then I stepped on a rock and lost my balance and hit my right knee on another rock breaking the knee cap in half.  I remember asking, "Lord, what more can go wrong.". 

I fell into the creek and the heavens opened up and poured on me.  My wallet floated away.  I was not going to lose this fish.  Again, I asked "Lord, what more can go wrong.". 

I climbed out of the creek and half-way up the hill, I slipped and rolled back down the hill into a patch of poison ivy.  For the third time I asked "Lord, what more can go wrong.". 

I climbed the hill once again, made it to my car only to discover that my car keys had somehow slipped out of my pocket into the creek. For the forth time I asked "Lord, what more can go wrong.".   I had no cell phone to call anyone so I slipped back down to the creek, got my keys, I slithered backed up the bank got into my car and drove away for about a mile and ran out of gas.  This time I figured out that God was tired of me asking what else could go wrong so I did not ask.  I passerby got me gas enough to drive to the local hospital.

I spent the next several weeks with my knee in a soft cast and itching like crazy!  I have learned not to ask the Lord what else can go wrong.

Okay, this is the point where you laugh.  It's okay, I laughed myself silly!  Murphy's Law, Right?  Have you ever tried to scratch that you cannot get to?

BTW, The trout was great!  James
