Chronicles of Deborah

Saturday night.

Went to church.

Ate.

Came home.

Put bag down.

Forgot mail.

Got mail key.

Dogs barking.

Run out quick.

Shut door.

Oh my.

Key inside.












Find a neighbor who is home.

Call a locksmith.

Wait.

Locksmith comes.

Inside.

Find a check.

Where ARE those stupid checks???

Oh yea.

Pay the locksmith (who actually was a Godsend).

Take dogs out.

Bring dogs in.

Unleashed Eddie.

Turned to grab the pup.

Eddie darts out.

Mad half crazed running down the street screaming "EDDIE!!!  EDDIE!!!  STOP!"

He slows...lunge for him.

Fall down.

He stops to poo.

Sneak in.

Grab his neck.

Drag him back.

Move lumber left outside.

Splinter.

Really God?

Are you trying to get my attention or is this just a great Saturday night show for the Angels whilst they eat popcorn?

One more question to ask when I get there...

Overwhelmed

From time to time we all feel overwhelmed (unless of course you are that one in a million who thrives on stress). 

I am not one of those people!

When I am feeling overwhelmed, I give up. 

Throw in the towel.

Let go.

I don't do it because I am quitting. Or because I just refuse to deal with the stress.

I do it because I've learned that when we are at our weakest, that's when God is strong. Scripture tells us, "my grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness."

Letting go means I am giving God space to take over. 

Breath deep. Relax. Release it to God.

Be A-MAZED at what God is about to do!
