Interrupted

Gallery Leave a comment

I’ve been tied up and gagged and have not been able to get to my lap top :) not really but getting here to write has been interrupted.  I’ve been talking to ABBA about interruptions this morning. Life seems to be one long interruption — have to watch that kind of thinking. It leads down a road none of us should travel.

I’ve been praying since yesterday for a little girl that I can only identify to you as Lily. I’m not certain of her age; 3 to 5. She was seriously injured yesterday when a tree limb (3 to 4 inches in diameter) fell striking her, knocking her to the pavement and rendering her unresponsive. She was life-flighted to the hospital and surgery was quickly done to relieve pressure in her head and she was placed in a medically induced coma to allow her to rest. I have been putting myself as best I can in the place of her Mother and Grandmother and crying out to our ABBA to restore Lily; to give her back to her family.  If you will, please join me.

My little interruptions.
How foolish, how sinful of me to fret over them.
Yesterday morning Lily’s family could never have imagined; why would they – that their lives would be interrupted this way.

Ants

I don’t even get to hate ants!

Truly, I’m not kidding and now in hindsight I am so glad. Would you like to hear this story? Good. Because I have to have something to write about and this is a fresh happening.

Yesterday the front porch was host to a million ants. No I am not exaggerating. There were at least four streams of them hiking from east to west (and my hubby would be proud to know I know the direction) the span of the front porch. I warred with them off and on throughout the day — they won.  So last night in a last attempt just after nightfall, I uncoiled the water hose and proceeded to produce a tsunami for them, hoping the forceful flood of water would slaughter at least 500,000 of them and would discourage the return of the others.

This morning in the early waking hours I sensed some unrest in my spirit and I was not prepared to live with it so I inquired of the LORD. And sure enough. I don’t get to hate ants. Not because He has a fondness for ants above me but because hating ants is destructive to me. That is not to say I must resign myself to ‘peacefully’ co-exist with them, but it is to say even in the thick of the battle to separate myself from them I must not hate them. If I want to abide in the peace of GOD and I do, I must have a heart of thanksgiving and void of hatred for anything, anyone, any creature.  I get to hate one thing — sin.

So do you have some ‘ants’ in your life; the very human kind? At all cost, forgive and petition the LORD to remove the hate from your heart. There is no other way to have His peace abiding in you; no other way to have His blessings.

Did the tsunami work? Of course not! They are back this morning. Same hiking trails as yesterday. The only change is me. I’m smiling and in sweet peace — ants and all. Albeit we did fed them some Sevin Dust this morning — time will tell. :)

Amen and amen. We can learn a lot from an ant.  :)

Happy weekend to you all.
