Oh, the perils of modern life when your phone decides to play hide and seek and turns out to be the MacGyver of your work world! There I was, navigating the chaos of life's little surprises, when my lifeline, an appendage—my phone—pulled a disappearing act worthy of Houdini. But, in a twist of fate that could only be orchestrated by the Big Guy upstairs, it was found by not one, but two young heroes, one of whom happens to be a fellow churchgoer. And if that isn't divine intervention enough, they somehow managed to channel their inner detectives and got in touch with my mom. Talk about a plot twist!
Now, here's the kicker: my phone, bless its broken soul, decided it was time to retire. So, I'm counting down the days until Wednesday when I can introduce a shiny new phone into my life. But let's rewind a second. In the midst of this phone fiasco, what should have been my first move? Prayer. Yep, I'll admit it. In the whirlwind of stress over fixing up the house before jetting off to Alaska for a class reunion, visiting my dad on the homestead, and indulging in some ocean fishing, I forgot to pause and pray. Oh, and let's not forget my body's ongoing battle with the illness-of-the-month club. It's like a never-ending saga at this point!
And just when you think the drama couldn't get any more soap opera-esque, my emotional support cat has decided to go AWOL for the past 10 days. I mean, seriously? If my life were a movie, it'd be a comedy-drama with a dash of mystery. So, while I'm juggling life's curveballs and waiting for my new phone to save the day, keep me in your thoughts. And if you see a wandering cat with the charm of a movie star, you know who to call... well, as soon as I have a working phone again!
Stay witty, stay blessed, and never underestimate the power of a good prayer—and maybe a bit of divine intervention with a side of human kindness. God is good all the time and I am ashamed to admit that I didn't immediately pray to him. I guess I am human and God knows it and that's when he carries me in the palm of his hand. Me I am better now, using peaceful oils to settle me down with very light undertones of soothing music.
