~My Blessings~

Out of Touch
I didn't realize how long it has been since I posted last. Spring is on it's way (it arrives tomorrow officially) and the ice is but a distant (and unwelcome) memory now. And life has gone on. It seems to be getting busier and busier, too. I have felt little joy the past three days. I think I am getting too wrapped up in the busy-ness and I am focusing less and less on Jesus. I read someplace that when you take your eyes off of Him you stumble. How true that is! And of course the enemy will take advantage of any opportunity to exploit a stumble. Sunday I was ready to go to church, but I was the ONLY person ready to go. So that made me grumpy. And let me tell you--it isn't easy to praise the Lord when you are grumpy! Since then it has been all down hill. There are some difficult things going on at work, and I had to make some difficult decisions. Then today a co-worker got upset with me, so naturally I got defensive and we gave each other the silent treatment all afternoon. I honestly did nothing wrong, but he perceived things differently and expected me to do something in his time that I very easily could have done in my own time (after my work was finished). So tonight I am feeling kinda bummed.

So, instead of having something insightful to share, I just needed to vent. And now I have a decision to make...do I go upstairs and read my bible or watch a movie.......I need ice cream!
