Jury Duty, I think not!
Submitted by: Reggie. P
Port OrangeI’ve been an avid follower of the Secret for over two years now. But, like others I was getting frustrated with the road blocks I was getting, trying to control the outcomes and basically getting into the way instead of having faith and believing that I was receiving, so I went back to reading the book, listening to the audio book, watching the movie every day.
Then it hit me, I wasn’t acting as if, I would ask, believe I’ve received it and then still have the same feelings every day of not having what I was supposed to believe was in my possession. So, what I did was started to give thanks for all I had and then it made be realize how blessed I actually was. I started really believing that I was receiving all my wants, one at time…
Well back to my story, I was summoned for jury duty and really dreaded doing my duty as most of us do. I stated that I wasn’t going to have to serve it. I told everyone, I reported for jury selection, hoping my group would be called last so by that time they would have their jurors for the week already selected and I would get to go home. If only I were so lucky. My group got picked to go next, I said it’s ok I wont get picked to serve. So, the lawyers questioned each of us – out of 25 potential jurors they only needed 6. I was selected, told when to report for my jury duty.
I was okay with it and accepted it and thought, Well, I really mastered the LOA, hmm guess it’s back to the drawing board! So, I called my fiancée and told her I was picked and she said she knew they would select me and she laughed out loud. We had lunch together and when I got home a number I didnt recognize called my phone and I let it ring to voicemail. So, I check my msgs and was ecstatic to find that the county clerk had called to tell me that my jury duty was no longer needed – the case was cancelled… I was sooooo happy!
Id been trying to figure out how the universe was going to get me out of this, but the universe had a way cleverer, smoother plan then I could ever imagine! Even when you think it’s impossible, it’s not impossible for God to provide, just have faith!
