This weeks post was written many months ago.
My posting it now, is in some ways, me saying “Yes” to my Lord God.
It’s me, trying to step into, that, which is available.

Last week I wrote about clamps being used to help a gluing process.
Then I have had a week where it has felt as if a clamp may have been applied to me, for a short time.
Short version. My car was changed recently with a used approved car.
An issue came up, which I was then being told, “This isn’t covered by your warranty.” I was then getting all the reasoning together as to why it should be covered. (OK, I was kind of getting ready to go to war… of sorts.)
The car went in for an inspection…. and then they said that they would fix it, under the warranty…. that they were saying, didn’t cover the issue… ??? (A fuller story can be found on a new blog site Here.)
This is where I need to, not ponder on the why.
It could be all to easy to carry on the road to war, after preparing for it, even though it is now, no longer needed.
I am very happy that I don’t need to take that path, and very much so thankful that it has turned out that way.
But why did they say that it wasn’t covered by the warranty, to then just do the repair work under the warranty?
It cost me a week of worry, that I would need to make good, something that shouldn’t need to be made good, and certainly not by me.
This is a path that I need to steer clear of, and to endeavour to just be thankful instead.
It has left me thinking, can we sometimes continue on a course of action, just because of the momentum of what has gone on is carrying us that way?
Even after a change in direction is available, or has even been taken?
If a problem has been removed, or an escape route has been provided, then why do we still want to go back to the problem?
I know, sometimes we can learn lessons by going over it again.
But are there times, when all we are doing is pulling up and digging into a whole world of pain, when we don’t need to?
Prayerful consideration of which route to take will be your best guide in all situations. Providing that we can hear Our Heavenly Father’s words for, the path that we should take.
For me this week, I very quickly leaned into the, “I’ll try to not ponder “Why”, but just be thankful instead.”
It made me smile, when some possible answers to the “why”, then just landed in my lap. 🙂
Have you ever found that, sometimes, things can just go that way?
One of the things to come out of this experience is the starting of a new (and hopefully short running) blog site.
Isn’t one enough???
While the clamps were on, I had a vision (or thought) to do another site as part of my persuasion as to why the issue, should be dealt with under the warranty. That need no longer exists, but a slightly different vision remains, even though the clamps have been removed.
I do like what I write here on this site. But lets be honest, it’s more of a personal library which just happens to be open for others to read, which most people just pass by, at the present moment.
This is fine by me, in some respects. (Not a bad thing to not be on the centre of the stage. 🙂 ) But it would be good if others could be blessed by what is written here. If a door could be opened to The Lord Our God, for others to enter on into the party. The hint is in the name, Wannabe Christian Doorman.
I have written about this in a previous post of, Here be Gold (Possibly?)
In that post, I liken this site to being a grain of gold in the Sahara Desert. (Incidentally, that post did have a spelling mistake which led to an outreach post of, Sahara Desert or Sahara Dessert?)
In the “Here be Gold” post, I also ask if anyone has a spot light to shine onto the grain of gold?
The new site, could possibly be a small (or larger) light to shine onto the gold in this site. I’m talking about Our Lord God’s words, not mine. 🙂
Time will tell how this will work out, but the thought, kind of goes…
Something that the world could enjoy reading, pointing to something with the Goodness (or Gold) that Our Loving Lord God has for us.
Last thing to say here is, that it is up and running (and by now mostly finished), and can be found from the link below.
The link below takes you to a post with a bit more punch to it.
If you are new to a high powered car, then reading it could possibly help you to not have an accident, just like I did.
