Why Now God?

Life was fairly normal yesterday. I bought those much needed mattresses. They were delivered the same day for a minimal cost and they are now set up in their rooms (and even fit upstairs as needed). I then hung out with some friends and played games after stopping by Ivanhoes.

Still, I came home around 10:30 and didn't get to bed until 1:40. My memory upgrade that I bought last fall decided to go on the fritz. Now I'm still able to do all the things I like to be able to do, but my computer runs much slower. There seems to be some sort of driver error for the memory upgrade so I've emailed customer service and am seeking their much needed knowledge to solve the problem. I pray that things work out before Tuesday a week from now so that my computer will be fully functional for my trip.

Why can't life be easier? It seems like just as things start to fall into place in one area, they fall apart in another. I know why but it is hard to admit so I'm just going to say it: this world is not my real home. If life here were easy I wouldn't need to have God, heaven, or eternity.

Since life here is hard and not so pleasant I do need to have an ultimate home in heaven through Jesus for eternity. So simple and yet I allow the frustrations of this world to overwhelm me and make me forget that my citizenship is of heaven and thus heaven is my real home not this irritating world I'm sojourning on and in.
