Could you not wait, even an hour?

I began the day in a mood. I was upset with someone at work, who promised to stay up with me at midnight while we did some special testing. Then after anhour of waiting he just logged off leaving me to do all the work. I was up to 3am. He never appologized. He never said anything.

As I got to work, I felt frustrated and realized i was angry with this guy.

So I sat and thought about it. I thought, "Man, this co-worker couldn't even wait with me an hour."

Then I remembered a passage in the Bible where Jesus says that about his followers in the garden.

That's when it hit me. The reason I went through this - I haven't been spending time with God... in meditation. I've been cheapening out. I used to give 20min 2 times a day. Now i give 4-10min maybe once a day. I can't even sit in meditation for more then a few min. I put other things as more important.

But nothing is more important then God.

So, this co-worker was a symbol of who I am... a reflection of my actions against God.

In that regard, I thank them. For showing me the error of my ways.
