 Glazed and Dazed

After writing about shutting everything down yesterday morning, the day found our phones out as well as our internet.  I laughed to myself and knew God was chuckling as well.   The phones would work if someone called in, but would not work if we wanted to call out.  Our internet was down as well. As our little box kept trying to 'call' out to connect... it could not do it.  I thought my grandson was going to melt down.  We all thought he broke it when he was in here pushing buttons. Boy did we all kid him about it. Finally we reached the phone company using my dependable VERIZON phone and listened to the sad recording that the lines had been tampered with and cut.

About a month ago it happened and it was due to teenagers stealing the copper and it knocked out phone lines and everything.  I am sure it was something equally ridiculous.   God works like this in our lives. We are so intent on the objects in front of us drawing our attention to them... and He has to "cut the wires" to get our attention. He has to turn our head another way by creating a major attention getting situation.  I personally do not like those 'happenings'. I always told my kids God hits you upside the head with His baseball bat and you know when you have been clunked. He WILL have your attention.  So do you want to do it the easy way or the hard way?

We are off to Dallas this morning early to Asel art for a 3 x 4 ft canvas for a special commission painting of my pony pulls.  THEN off to see Lady L aka The Tink.  We will spend the night with Tink and return on the morrow.  Carol is keeping the dogs for us so she will keep the house cool and ready to go... we will only be gone 24 hours, so it is not bad.  We are celebrating Terry's birthday at lunch and Lady L is very excited buying balloons and cake.

I will try and blog if I have time, if not I will pick back up when we get back.
Laurie

Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
