The BIG fall
August 2, 2022 - I am one of those people that think I can bring in all my supplies at one time and lIterally think nothing bad will happen........WRONG! Came in VERY early this morning because of course, I have a lot to do today. After all, I gotta get it done because I have a hair appt at 1pm WITH Wanda Jane Galloway 🙂 I digress....
Everything I possibly can carry, I am carrying. In the dark and walking up the steps. Wouldn't you know the toe of my sandal catches on the step and down I go! The only thing I think of is this stupid fall is going to be recorded on the TD Bank for all to see😲😂 Then I'm remembering that I just went to see the chiropractor a few days ago and was feeling pretty darn good. It's a good thing that I have Dr. Ben Avritt on speed dial. Hey Ben! Instead of seeing you in 2 weeks, how about Friday?
I came inside, still carrying EVERYTHING, I still haven't learned anything at this point. I put everything down and badage up the shin and then I thank Jesus that I was going up the stairs, instead of going down. It could have been so much worse.
As I am writing this, God is speaking to my heart and He is reminding me that I am NOT meant to carry everything by myself. He is reminding me of His presence and that I can trust Him to help me carry all that concerns me, frustrates me, angers me and worries me. “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved” (Psalm 55:22) He also reminds me in Psalm 46:1 "that God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble". Thanks God for speaking these truths to me, EVEN when I did something that was not too terribly smart.
I LOVE when God does that! Right now it kinda takes my mind off the "big fall" and the pain that is starting to take hold of my body 😂 Slow down Ann and remember that I AM NOT MEANT TO CARRY IT ALL!!! Neither are you.....
