My friends and family know that I can’t see more than two feet in front of my face without my glasses. Well, make that a foot clearly and two feet is super blurry. So what was my first thought when a wave ripped my glasses from my hand? “This is going to be fine.” While my amazing squad mates with me looked around for them and squatted on the beach praying they’d show up, I stood simply calm. 

 

That was just the highest part of a weird day where it seemed like the enemy was trying everything to get me upset. I mean me, who doesn’t let people take care of me. Me who has to do everything in my power to make everyone’s life around me better. I had to be lead home by the hand and fully trust the people around me. Talk about learning a lesson fast and hard! 

 

Time to look at the bright side, I didn’t get upset. Normally something like that would make me frustrated, yet when this happened I was strangely clam and at peace. And looking at the bright side, I had a spare pair of glasses with me. In my correct prescription. And they are transition lenses so I actually have sunglasses now. Will I be wearing these calf deep in water at the beach? Absolutely not. But I’ve gotta marvel at how God used this to work.
