God is in my life for a reason

This weekend was crazy. Friday night, we went to an A's game with my father in law & his wife. Giana was at home with her Nana (James' mom). The game was fun, not my team but I was there to support James & his A's. They blew out the Orioles by like 8 runs and the weather was pretty nice too. Our seats were tight too. J got the tickets from through his work, Aramark. Aramark does the uniforms & all that for the Oracle Arena so we always get tickets to Warriors and A's and I think the Raiders (but I will NEVER go to a Raider game - F that!) When we were leaving, we were asked to move to the side. Next thing you know, there's a girl being wheeled through on a strecher drunk as hell! This chick had throw up on her shoulder! Nasty. I dont' get why people get sooooooooo drunk at a BASEBALL game!! I understand tailgating & having fun with a few beers & friends but damn...it's a game. But all in all, we had fun. Here's a pic.

Saturday we went to a grad party at a park for James' lil cousin. It was ok. Giana had fun running around.

Sunday was church in the AM. It's so crazy how the pastor can preach on things that are going on in your life at that VERY moment. I'm telling you...Pastor Paul was preaching on topics that I was like.."um, do you have a tape recorder in my purse?" LOL! Anyways, I won't get into detail about my stressful life but it was so good to hear encouragement about life and how it's dealt to you by God. One thing he said that I won't forget is "God will put people in your life to test you. And it's how you deal with it that makes you stronger and you have to say yes to God and stop running from His will. If you keep running from Him, he will keep bringing people in your life to test you. Once you're done with those people & their problems, he has a brand new batch of people with issues waiting in the wings to drop down in your life". What I took from that is, there will be people in your life that will drive you UP THE WALL with their problems and issues. All that comes from God. My question is why? haha, I know WHY but sheesh! God tests us like that. And God knows me & how I am being (selfish I guess) so he's testing me like that b/c he knows it's one of my problems is dealing with certain people.

I guess I need to pray and seek His guidance. Especially right now because I'm going to tear my hair out and God is the only one that can keep me from going bald.
