One of the things I am having to accept is the fact ... and it IS a fact... that I am in control of me. If people or events prevent me from doing something, it is because I allowed that change to happen. I need to accept that challenges to ~MY~ plans are God testing my commitment or trying to tell me that I should be doing something else. How I respond to that challenge is my choice. It has always been so.
My family often interupts me when I am performing a task. Yet, when I am sitting quietly next to them, watching TV or whatever, they do not seek my attention. If I am loading the dishwasher, my husband will often stand in between me and the dishwasher. I used to glare at him because "HE" was keeping me from finishing the dishes. Now I just wait patiently while he conveys his message. Sometimes he will ask if he is "in the way" and I will just smile. I think the next time he asks me if he is in the way, I will tell him "no, you never have been and you never will be."
