SHARON'S BYTE
Testimony Of The Soapy Bath
by
Sharon Simpson Joseph
I stopped working to lift some weights and then went briefly back to my work . . . thinking OK, I know I need to take a shower, and I am looking forward to it.
It's 2:20 PM. I am working out of home today and started the day by throwing on some clothes and beginning to research. I stopped working to lift some weights and then went briefly back to my work . . . thinking OK, I know I need to take a shower, and I am looking forward to it.
I finally ran a bath, added my favorite bubble bath and jumped in, a cup of tea by the side of the tub. I settled back amidst lots of bubbles and then, as I turned the hot water on to add a bit more heat to my bath . . . the water sputtered, then died.
I sat in disbelief. Got out, checked the sink, sure enough no water there either. I got back in the bath, thinking what am I going to do? Beside me was 1/2 a bottle of spring water (yes in addition to the tea) so I figured maybe I can use that to rinse off. (I had an awful lot of bubbles.) Why did this happen right now? In the middle of the afternoon, just when I am taking my bath? Why not 10 minutes ago, or 10 minutes later?
Anyway, then it occurred to me, there's nothing you can do about this right now. Why not sit back and enjoy the bath? You have everything you need for this step . . . taking the bath. Why not enjoy it and not sweat what's going to happen next. Don't ruin the joy of the bath, by worrying about how you are going to handle what comes after.
So I did.
Mid way through, I realized I'd left the water on (of course none was running out) I turned it off, thankful I noticed now. It could have meant an ugly flood later on.
Continued to enjoy my bath.
OK. I'm done, I figured.
I turned the water on and . . . what do you think?
There it was, back full blast!
I washed off all the bubbles in the pleasant hot steam of my shower.
Dried off and came to write this entry.
My testimony:
I received a valuable lesson about faith. Each step of the way, you are blessed. God has the next step taken care of. Even when you have no idea what it's going to look like. Don't let that stop you from taking the step you face right now . . . go for it . . . and enjoy it! Believe that God has the next step handled.
Love,
Sharon

Count Your Blessings

Have You Ever Really Counted Your Blessings?
I recently faced a health crisis that rocked my world. I cried. I prayed, but the miracle that I wanted did not come. However, the Lord showed me how worse things could have been. His grace helped me to see the things that really mattered. When I look at beautiful healthy daughter, my husband, my mom, my friends and family, I know now that his grace is sufficient.

SINGLE MOMMA DRAMA
The Sun has Come Out
by Helena - 2006-09-10
It was predicted to rain but it now looks clear. It would not matter because I am back on track.
I am getting ready to go to church with Leigh. I am not sure when my break through came, but I need to give thanks. Some say fake it until you make it. The problem is that I have never been really good at that. I not only where my heart on my sleeve but its in my eyes. It colors my cheeks. I have always had to feel good about circumstances to act like it. Needless to say I suck at office politics.
Well, all I know is I wake up each morning not hating life. I even survived last weekends shared weekend without the need to stab anyone. Thank you God for letting me be able to deal.
