Sense of Humor

So I was thinking this morning (which is sometimes a scary way to start a post!)... and I thought to myself that the subject of my thoughts might make a good blog post for today! So here goes...
I was just meditating on the fact that every time that I really decide that I absolutely can't or won't do something, that is exactly what God has me do... And the more I think about this, the more things that I think of that God does that with!
So, I have come up with a theory... and I don't think it is biblical necessarily... that God has a great sense of humor! (let me know if you find any verses to back that up!) (again, THEORY, so it is free to be proved or disproved)
Okay, so originally when I was trying to decide what all I wanted to do with my life and what to major in for my college work I had no ideas... (mostly cause I like too many really different things and I never really settle down to one thing) So, trying to be all responsible, I turned to God and was like, "Okay, well, I am open to suggestions, and I'll do anything... except the medical profession (cause I really don't have a strong stomach)" And I can just see God now, with His smug little smile going, "Ohh, reeeaalllly?" With characteristic irony, guess what He had me major in? Yep, nursing...
It's kind of like He came along and said, "And why exactly Joanna, do you NOT want to do this? Is it because you don't trust My strength enough to get through this?" To which of course I have to say, "Weeellll, no, but..." and then I end up following Him anyway. Funny thing is, I always end up loving exactly what He leads me into... like He knew it all along!(hmm, maybe cause He did!)
So, I didn't want to be a nurse..... absolutely love serving people in that way.
Didn't want to work in a nursing home..... bam, and I love it!
Didn't want to go to Africa..... bam, absolutely fell in love with it!
I hate being a leader, and flat out told God that I am not.... and He is constantly thrusting me into leadership positions!
Even silly things like, I didn't want to stay in my hometown.... and I actually really don't want to live anywhere else in the US now. Or, I didn't want to be that person that stayed really close and dependent on their parents.... and I really have been able to maintain a beautiful trusting relationship with both of my parents.
What it really all comes down to in the end is that God really knows what He is doing so much better than I do. And the sense of ironic humor with which He chooses to sculpt my life makes me sigh, and then laugh, because seriously who else could know that these changes would be exactly what I needed and would love!
