So, the only thing keeping me hanging on is that I’ve committed. I’ve given my word . I’m not one to go back on my word. “Let your yeas be yeas…” Seriously though, in all honesty I’m not sure I would stick around if it wasn’t for committing & the sense of responsibility of follow through.
Salad- not the greatest tasting, but very healthy and provides fiber to help get the bad stuff out!
Teeth- babies do nothing to deserve the pain. It is a natural maturation process that comes when they are ready for the next level of food. Once they have the teeth they have to learn the lifetime task of caring for them.
Vaccines- hurt during and for sometime after, but either treat or prevent a problem.
Sand- gets into an oyster and aggravates it to create a beautiful pearl. When the pearl is harvested, the oyster is too.
Coal- put through a fire-y, crushing, refining process to create a beautiful diamond.
Here’s to spiritual salad, teeth, vaccines, sand, and coal!
James 1:2-4 (AMP)
2Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations.
3Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience.
4But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing.
AHHHEMMM….
