Deliverance belongs to the LORD; may your blessing be on your people!
I've drown a few worms in my time. Sometimes, life does not give us what we want.
We face situations in which our expectations are unmet. When things don't work out
exactly right, our first impulse usually is to gnash our teeth or ask to see the
manager. If we can stop for a moment, step back, and take a creative look at the
situation, we might be able to find a blessing in the most frustrating situation.
(Psalms 3:8
NRSV)
A fishing enthusiast was relaxing by a lake when he was approached by a nosy
local. After a moment's thought, the local asked, "Hey there! You fishing?"
The angler gave him a sideways glance and replied, "Nope."
"Then what are you doin' with the fishing pole?" asked the local.
"Oh, I just like to drown worms."
Dear Jesus, thanks for blessing my life. May I be a blessing to you and to your people. Amen.
