I Survived the Week!

What a week! It started with a spotty rash, itching, and skin crawling…back to safe diet (no dairy, peanuts, etc.). Doc said mold counts were high earlier in the week, and a week long freeze would help (not the remedy I had in mind). Friday ended the week with me hitting my head on a fire extinguisher and gashing my scalp. I thought that was the cherry on top of a week of stressors, but no.

Last night, someone decided to throw an egg at our house. Luckily it only hit the stone and not Brad’s new car. Over the last 10 years, we have had a bottle rocket launched into our garage, a giant picture of male genitalia spray painted in gold on our garage door, and now the egg.

But, when this life gets tough, when our spirit gets down, when we feel overwhelmed, God still sits on his throne, watches over us, and waits for us to join Him in heaven. He provided a friend to come assess the gash on my head. This morning, on my Facebook feed, post after post from my friends’ pages were clearly the voice of The Lord speaking directly to my pain and frustrations of this week. What peace that brought my soul! What an attitude adjustment I received! And my heart sincerely cries out, “Thank you, Lord!”
