Well.....when it rains...it definately pours at our house ;-0) Oh yes! We have had things pretty easy lately......or shall I say things have gone pretty smooth for us lately! I guess it is time to have a change of pace....LOL! Okay.....for the past two days we have had NO air conditioning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is staying between 84 and 87 degrees in our house around the clock! We can't open windows since we don't have screens on most windows and our precious kitty cat might get out! Well the babies might try to escape to a much cooler place!!!!!
My headache is not getting better with all of this heat.......and I have found myself getting a little grumpy at times! I was reminded yesterday by a very special person in my life, my mom, that these are the times to lean on Jesus the most! I need to be an example of His peace to my kids and husband........even though I am a little stressed about the heat in our home! I tell my children that we need to TRUST IN THE LORD......Proverbs 3:5-6, and it is at these exact moments that the "RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD"! Do I trust in God only when things are easy and smooth....or do I trust in Him when nothing seems to be going my way......and I feel like I am going to lose it completely!?!?
I had a good talk with my children and explained to them that it is at times like this that we really get to experience the peace of the Lord.....that we really learn to trust in what the Word of God says! The true peace of God comes when nothing is going your way.......and lately that is exactly what's been happening ;-) God is Faithful all of the time and He is to be trusted with our lives. I have been in control of my life before and I see where it got me...LOL! So on this beautiful night/morning....as I sit here literally sweating to death.....I am reminded of just how sweet my savior is.....I know that I will wake up tomorrow and accomplish whatever the Lord has for me to do ;-) I want His agenda and not my own......hopefully that entails getting my AC fixed real soon ;-)
