*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
I shuffled around the house for a while, not knowing quite what to expect. I went outside thinking that I would ask practical questions of God instead of all the silly, mundane questions I tended to propose when I was with Him. This would be my golden opportunity. This time I would not be put off by answers that seemed too vague or too complex. Perhaps He�d walk around the yard with me, maybe give me some tips on how to get the mimosa tree to bloom. I know, I grinned, I�ll ask Him about the leaking pipe in the basement and at the same time check His opinion on whether I should resurface the driveway or not.
The more I thought about it, the more I realized how many things I would like God to help me with. Of course, there are those two bad tires on the car. I wonder if I should replace them now or keep them for another few months or so. Then there�s the matter of sending the children to spend some vacation time with their grandparents. Should this be done early in the summer or much later,preferably a few weeks before the new school year begins? I mustn�t forget the room in the attic. Surely God would agree that I should paint it. But what color should I use? Perhaps green,or maybe yellow or blue. No problem � God will help me with all these decisions.
And so it went, each question becoming more meaningless and self-centered than the one before. It took just a few minutes to realize that I�d fallen into an old, but senseless, habit. With an embarrassed smile, I discovered that I didn�t need to ask God about my mimosa tree. The information was readily available at the nursery or library, and a phone call or visit would teach me all I needed to know. Our local plumber could advise me concerning the basement pipe, and it didn�t require much common sense to figure that the local mechanic should check the tires. As for the children spending a week with their grandparents, why didn�t I just call and ask the grandparents which week would be best?
