Terrible, horrible, no good very bad day
Perhaps you are familiar with the book by the same name as the heading. Alexander has a very bad day and decides to move to Australia until his Mom says bad things can happen there too.
Today was one of those days for my Jon. It started out with an adjustment on his sore back. Then a phone call with the insurance company regarding our check for a new car and paperwork we had to fill out that had not arrived. Next, he sat at the computer to handle some business and the speakers blew up. To make matters worse, he needed them to hear the training session.
About that time the gal who was doing a write up for the garden club at church called to say that the photos we sent her were too small andshe asked if we could bring in the camera to see if they could be enlarged. So we dropped everything and headed to church , all to no avail. The photos were still too small. Secretly Jon was glad since he did not want his picture in the article anyway.
Since we were out and about we dropped by the computer place to get new speakers. We had lunch and visited with a friendly gal there at KFC. Next we headed to Turlock for an appointment about possible Prostate cancer. The upshot was that Jon will have to have a biopsy at the end of the month. Not what he wanted to hear.
We arrived home to return the call to the dentist to confirm an appointment to deal with his tooth that is infected. Next a call to the insurance regarding the papers which arrived but were not clear.
He was very discouraged by the time he left for work and who could blame him. His body is falling apart, his car was totaled and he is weary of phone calls and paperwork.
Jesus had words of encouragement for him.
" Peace I leave you. MY peace I give to you. In the world you will have trouble, but be of good cheer, I, Jesus, have overcome the world.'
So instead of moving to Australia, Jon is going to move closer to Jesus trade his load for Jesus peace.
