The Other Allison Miller

"Hey Allison, did you get in a wreck on Burbank close to Bluebonnet? I took a call the other night for an Allison Miller and realized after I got off the phone, it might have been you?"

This email came from one of my friends who is one of Baton Rouge's Finest. It was sitting in my inbox waiting for me when I got home tonight. I went a friend's birthday dinner, (Happy 24th Lana!), and got home around 10pm. Which for me is late. Yeah, yeah, I'm old.

No, I wasn't in a wreck. It was a different Allison Miller and I hope she's alright. I've heard of another Allison Miller who was in Tiger Band a few years back. But I'm safe and sound. In fact, I'm doing great. God's been really showing off in my life lately. And not just my life, He's been doing it in the lives of the ones I love as well.

My job is stressful, my family is crazy, my church makes me smile, and my community makes me blissfully happy to be a part of it. God's just really been, well, a big Show Off. And I'm truly loving every minute of it. Yes, drama is everywhere and I've no idea where God is going with everything in my life. Surprisingly, I'm fine with it. In fact, I'm more than fine with it, I'm asking Him to keep doing His thing in the lives of my friends and family. All I did was give Him free reign. It just took me 24 years, 240 days to do it.

I love caring for my friends and family, but He does such a better job of it than I do!

Another Allison Miller? It's just like "Multiplicity". Oh how life imitates art.

God is doing some cool stuff in the lives of a lot of friends right now. It's awesome to see Him work and very encouraging to hear what He's doing in your life.
