Feeling Absolutely Wretched Today Well,
Feeling Absolutely Wretched Today
Well, I have no idea why I forced myself to go to work today. I feel dreadful. No dreadful doesn't even begin to hold a candle to how I feel. And yet at the same time, I begin to see this as a gift that the Lord has given me. I wouldn't mind at all if He decided to take it back or perhaps not send the same one again; however, a gift it is.
So, I will offer up this wretched endurance of a day, however it may turn out, for the intentions of all those who have written to me and for one special person in particular.
Given that this is a tranistory and minor discomfort in the scheme of things, it probably isn't the most efficacious offering--but the way I see it, a gift is ours to use as we choose, and if I use this one till the batteries run down, God can effect good works in the lives of others.
Praise the Lord, for He is good, His love endures forever!
