Last week was a little difficult. After we transferred my son back to in-person school the school board decides to require masks. So, we had to make a quick decision to get him back to cyber because he doesn't handle mask wearing very well. Then we got a ton of rain which flooded our basement a little bit. My husband was using a lot of four-letter words while cleaning it all up, if you know what I mean. This morning my alarm went off at 6:15 and I grumbled at the thought of waking up early to go to work. I spent a few hours getting things ready in the kitchen for the first day of school on Wednesday as I thought about the overwhelming and uncertain year that lay ahead. When I came home I had to deal with my poor boy who is suffering with an inner ear infection. Last night he was in so much pain and had very little sleep. My husband also had little sleep because of his own pain he's been feeling.
I could go on and on about things going on right now.
Then I think about what is going on in the rest of the world and my problems seem so miniscule. I try not to watch the news anymore but I do know about what's going on in Afghanistan right now and it's scary. There are other countries going through a lot of tough situations. Here in this country there are people dealing with so many problems. The west has been experiencing fires while the east has been getting way too much rain.
I pray for this crippled world and a country that seems to be going under faster than you can say HELP. I can share my views and I can say who I feel is to blame but it's not going to fix the problems, is it? All I can do is pray. Pray for our nation and pray for the world. We need Jesus now more than ever!
