Home inspection, termite inspection, roof repairs, extension of contract, VA loan approval pending, electrical and plumbing fixed? I dont know.... I cant reach the agent.... Break the lease, penalties assessed, deadlines, moving, packing, lifting, cleaning... ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ We thought the washer and dryer were staying in the house but now they want to take it so we need to find money to buy a washer and dryer... ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Bris migraines, doctor appointments an hour one way, testing, not testing due to age, trips to the doctors for no reason, (they messed up TWICE! FOURS HOURS of driving and three hours of sitting and waiting and then.. NOTHING! ARGGH!) missing school/tests, medications that dont help, NEW medications that kind of help... ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Bri having allergic reactions and hives but we dont know why. Another doctor ALSO an hour drive one way. (medicaid!) More tests. ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Bris insurance is about to end in May but we still have no answers to her issues. Trying to reach the proper department to try to get her benefits extended and was shuffled between FIVE different workers. STILL havent spoken to the right person and its been three WEEKS! ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Bri has cavities and we dont have a dentist and I need to get this done before her medicaid is gone but Ive been a little busy but we have a deadline but now she has the lead in the school play and I dont have her schedule yet so I cant make an appointment and we are running out of TIME!! ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Breaking out in blisters on my scalp. Doctors visits. No resolution. OUCH! ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Bris SAT test and bridal shower the same day! ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Teaching 2 different classes on 2 different days. ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Two graduations, my son from college and my daughter from high school, a wedding, a big birthday (18!!) graduation party and mothers day... (the wedding, birthday and mothers day are the same WEEKEND!)...all in one month.. ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ Driving to Ohio and staying the entire summer to sort and get rid of stuff in a 21 room house that is FULL of stuff.. by myself..alone. Get what I want to keep together, rent the UHaul and get it all to Florida BEFORE its time to get Bri settled into her dorm. OH! I MIGHT have to come back to Florida to do that and then go back to Ohio to finish my work there... ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ I HAVE SNAKES! ~Thats not enough to deal with. How about this?~ I have children who have issues that need me and my help and they are thousands of miles away... and my grand babies.. I miss my grand babies. NOW! Before you think that I am complaining, ranting, depressed, angry, frustrated, upset.. whatever... let me tell you something. I may have had a moment or second of those feeling flit through my emotional being. But.... I am actually LAUGHING! Yes. LAUGHING! How is it that you are LAUGHING you ask? Because.... I KNOW IN WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED AND AM PERSUADED THAT NOTHING CAN SEPARATE ME...... Listen. First of all, I know how to prioritize, organize, maximize, minimize and energize my life. When life throws a curve ball.. I deal with it because my Father is there to help me know what to do and when. I do not have to worry or stress....and even when I DO; its for a short time because God reminds me that Hes got this. I KNOW that ALL things work together FOR ~ MY ~ GOOD! I can trust my Abba Father! The enemy looks at the stuff, how Im dealing with it and thinks...hmmm... lets throw THIS in there and sees how she does. And THAT makes me LAUGH! The enemy wants to kill, steal and destroy and God wants to lift, uphold and prosper... Now, Ive read the end of the Book. We win! So I LAUGH! What can separate me from the love of God? Can finances, deadlines, disease, insurance, activities, scheduling conflicts...SNAKES? NO! NOTHING can separate me from God and His good plan for my life and the lives of my family!
