My fish story

My sister has a cabin in Northen Wi., and occasionally the family will go up North and stay for a few days. I love it up there as it is serene,beautiful and right on a lake!
I love to fish and I just go to the end of the pier and put a bobber on my pole and cast it out and reel it in nice and slow. I can think and just stare at the beauty around me and BE STILL!
After spending four solid days on the lake....yes up early, and up late fishing, I began to think there were no fish in that lake. It didn't help when my son Nathan ,(he was 6 at the time)set up a chair on the beach by the pier and started fishing too. He would cast awfully close to my head and narrowly miss me and I was really getting irritated. After about ten minutes of this torture,he was getting bored and started to throw rocks by where I was fishing. I yelled at him to stop!!!! I told him he was scaring any fish there were away and he said "no, I am scaring them to us". With that, he cast his pole again and immediately caught a big Northern pike! I was excited for him because these fish are fighters and he caught it by himself! Well, I was happy for Nathan, but now I was determined!!!! I went to the end of the pier and yelled "Lord, you say in your word that you do not show partiality "(have favorites) Acts 10:34....so you did it for Nathan (in spite of his sabbotage) now I want you to do it for me!!!! So, with attitude and expectancy, I cast my rod and.....after two casts I finally got my fish! It was a good size large mouth bass! I think
God was showing His humor with the big mouth!!!
Well, I went fishing and learned a good truth!So, if any of you are waiting for the normal, right way of doing things...........God is in control and He loves to surprise us and bless us!
As you go about your day, remember that God doesn't have favorites, sooooooooooooooo.....We are all his favorites! Now, that's a good thought!
