What a Day....

It is now 11:07pm (eastern time) and I could not go to sleep without telling ya'll about what happened today.  This morning, some of you may know, I was suppose to go to the studio to record.  The studio that I'm going to work out of with my producer, Herb Middleton, is in Delaware.  I rented a car the night before and went to pick up my friend and her child and then we were going to pick up my boyfriend so that we could all go to Delaware.  Now, as my friend and I was driving to pick up Joe, I hit a pot hole and got a flat tire.  (This is just the beginning.)  We made it to Joe's place and, being the amazing man that he is, he instantly started changing the flat tire.  Now we could be on our way, right?  Wrong.  Got a call from my producer saying that we were going to have to reschedule because of some technical difficulties.  That was great and I am grateful that we were still in NY and were not on the road.  God is amazing!! Not finished yet.  I decided to come back to my apartment and pick up some stuff to take to my new apartment.  (I'm moving to BX).  Anyway, I found this "great" parking spot in front of my building that was just waiting for me.  It was on some ice, but, I figured it was where I was meant to park.  An hour later, my friend  and I, along with her baby, came out and got in the car.  I tried to pull off and couldn't!  I was wondering what is going on here, God!  It was crazy.  I couldn't back up or go forward.  (I have to say this before I go on:  The block that I live on is known for the crackheads and the drug dealers.  So, I needed to preference that before moving forward.)  From the other side of the street, one of the neighborhood crackheads came to help me out.  She pulled out a cardboard box from the garbage and tried her best to help me.  I found a screw driver, (she couldn't bring out her ice pick cus it's her weapon) and she was trying to pick the ice away from in front of my tire.  Then, another crackhead or drug dealer, named Smurf came out of no where and started to try to help me.  She started sharing with us how horrible her Valentine's day was so, it was some relief to take out her anger on the ice.  Then, she and the other one recruited about 4 other dudes to come and chip at the ice and push the car out.  The next thing we knew, we had 6 or so crack heads/drug dealers working with all of the heart to help us out of the ice so that we could go.  I am AMAZED!  It blew my mind and showed me my heart because I've been in this neighborhood for a couple of years, but was to arrogant to talk to them, but now I needed help and who showed up to help me? The crackheads and drug dealers.  (Lord, I pray to get this lesson.)
I had a long day, but this was one of the main things that happened in my day that I wanted to share because it taught me a lot about really seeing myself with sober judgement and never putting up my nose at others and thinking that I'm better than they are just because of their life circumstances.  I really pray to have a changed heart.
Rom 12:3 Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
