God doesn't change

I don't know why I even bother making plans. My plans are in the business of failing. I am in the business of failing. I know we learn by failing, but I would rather learn by success. I even had a friend ask me if I was jinxed. Let me be a pessimist for a little while and tell you what's gone wrong this week:

• I backed into a car
• My car broke down on I-45
• I failed my Spanish Teacher's Exam
• I was severly disappointed after getting my hopes up

Now let my optimistic alter-ego come out:

• The person I backed into didn't charge me
• I got to share the gospel with the mechanic/tow-truck man
• I may never know why I failed
• There's something better out there

It's so easy for me to get angry and bitter whenever things don't go my way. Those moments where I beg and plead for God to have mercy, yet everything and everyone that God gives us ultimately belongs to God. My every moment, my every breath belongs to God.
