"Oh, be careful little mouth what you say..."
I learned a lot of songs in church when I was younger. Man, that one still rings true. Be careful little eyes what you see. Be careful little ears what you hear. Be careful little mouth what you say. I should have remembered that earlier this week when I whined that this would be the week from hell.
I came into this week knowing that I'd have 2 events at work that I was in charge of on Friday. I knew that I was co-leading GIRL Talk on Friday night. And I knew that I was leading our church's Harvest Festival tomorrow. There was a lot of planning and running around left for the festival and just thinking about it all had me feeling overwhelmed.
"This is going to be the week from hell!" I groaned.
Wanna know what happened next?
I got sick. On Tuesday I started coughing and I've been at it ever since. This ain't no cold. It feels like I felt when I had bronchitis in December. Boo!
Who knows if I would have gotten sick if I hadn't said that. What matters is how I respond. No more whining and complaining for me. God is still on the throne. I'm still His child. He's still taking care of me. Nothing has changed in my life this weekend. I still have to get up early tomorrow and work all day. But I'll have a good attitude. :-)
