MORE....May I Change Seats, Please?
Dr. Jack Hyles told of an experience he once had on a flight from San Francisco to Chicago.
The flight attendant came by and took the man’s order for breakfast. The man spoke to her, but wouldn’t speak to Dr. Hyles. So Dr. Hyles asked, “Do you have some problems?” The man still ignored him. Dr. Hyles thought, “This old crab is ruining my trip. I have to sit beside this person for four hours. He is not going to ruin my trip.”
So he called the stewardess and asked, “Ma’am, may I change seats, please?”
She said, “I’m sorry, the plane is full. You must stay in your assignes seat.
He looked at the man and said, “If you think you’re going to ruin my trip, you’re mistaken.” The man never looked up.
All of us are boarded on a plane heading toward a destination. In order to enjoy the trip, you need to understand a couple of things. First, God has assigned you a seat in life. Second, you are probably going to be seated next to a crab.
That crab may be a difficult person you work with. That crab may be your spouse. It may be a relative or a next-door neighbor, or it may even be some difficult circumstances you are going through.
And that crab is ruining your trip.
So you cry out to God and pray, “May I change seats, please? Can I move away from this situation?”
He answers, “No, this is your assigned seat in life. Buckle you seat belt and enjoy the trip!”
