Winter time arrived in Columbus during the past week. It is very cold at night. It is difficult to leave the warmth of a big, fluffy comforter in the morning!
We can also act that way with God. We can get so caught up in BEING comforted that we find it hard to get out from under God's big, fluffy comforter! hehehe
This verse meant a lot to me:
2 Corinthians 1:4 -- He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.
Wow! I have written about one of the purposes of my blog -- to show others that while I have a "no ordinary life", I also have my struggles. My prayer is that I can pass on the comfort that God has shown to me to others in need. That is what I do...
Lord, help me to show you comfort to others when they need it most.
Disciple Two-sday
The chapter this week describes the mobile temple that God told Moses and the people of Israel to build. Lots and lots of excruciating details in these scripture passages! Here is what I learned from my reading so far.
God is a God of details. Yes, he knows the details of what he wants. He knows the details of what he wants from us. He expresses it to us if we will listen. He acknowledges our obedience if we do it in the right spirit. Israel did that and remained the people of God. That is pretty amazing stuff.
We start into the New Testament readings next week. That will be amazing as well.
Other Stuff
I love technology! I received a CD with the pictures from my MRI yesterday morning. I received notification from my doctor that there was nothing serious in the MRI. There were a few cysts and a little arthritis. He recommended staying on the anti-inflammatories, ICE, and refrain from my convention center walking for a while. I can walk on a treadmill, in a pool, or ride a stationery bike for exercise. That was a relief!
I didn't get out of work until 8:00 pm last night. The good news is that I figured out what appears to be the last major problem identified by the testers. My coworker also figured out his last major problem. We will talk more today and finish our last lab before the upgrade weekend. We need to refine the documentation to make the production rollout go smoothly. Whew!
I plan to take off work on time tonight. I need to do some stuff around the house as well as make snacks for the D2 class tomorrow night. It means a lot to me to make something instead of buy it. I am funny that way sometimes. hehehe
Hang in there, my friends! I will be upbeat and steady. That is what I do...
