From 2002:
Who hasn't felt upset with God at one time or another. He understands the struggle we face and I think telling God I'm upset even at you is a good thing, because it's honest and it opens us up for healing.
One time I had just moved away from my family for the first time. Just out of Army basic training and I locked my keys in my trunk. 300 miles from home, didnt know anyone. I was a shy guy, 18 yrs old and I had to be at work in the morning at 6 am and it was now 10 pm. I was beyond stressed and annoyed. I yelled out, 'God I can't do it anymore, please leave me alone, I'm tired of the tests.." (not that I had any idea what a test was but still)... Wouldn't you know it, as soon as I said that a stranger comes by in a truck, no idea I needed help (I wasn't flagging people down), he jumps out of his truck, crawls through the cab of my car (it didn't have a trunk release lever) and opend my trunk from the inside. Sure enough there my keys were, right on the lip of the trunk. He said, "Good luck" jumped in his truck and I have not seen him since. I still believe that may have been an angel of God sent to help me because I told God what was happening. Isn't he great?!
Forgot to add, once I had my keys back, I was very upset with myself for being so simple minded, I said I was sorry to God and thanked him for all he had done for me.
