IMPOSSIBLE. It should be impossible for one seeking to serve the Lord.....but it's what happened.
It's also embarrassing. To make matters worse, as I printed off my grocery list and my "teaching" list, I lost them in the computer room as I was looking for another list. I sat and literally "cried" out to the LORD---the tearful kind of crying out.
Answering friend JoLynn's phone call, I acknowledged that I was heading out the door for the grocery (prep for said trip was a BIG part of meltdown #3) and that I was in such a pitiful state that I hoped I wouldn't have a meltdown on aisle 7. BTW---In "my" Kroger, aisle 7 is the "tea aisle."
Who knew? I didn't......but for sure it's a hangout aisle for me.
Who knew? I didn't......but for sure it's a hangout aisle for me.
I could just hear it over the Kroger intercom. Meltdown on Aisle 7---Clean-up needed!"
That was it----clean-up was needed. So.....back to the prayer chair before I walked out the door.
After all, Wednesdays, on my weekly schedule, have always been "Weeping Wednesdays," a time of confession.
Create in me a clean heart O Lord and renew a right spirit within me.
(Psalm 51:10, ESV)
Faithful spirit. (GWT) Loyal spirit. (NLT) Resolute spirit. (NET) Right attitude. Right spirit. (KJV)(ISV) Steadfast spirit. (NASB)
Right spirit is the antithesis of a meltdown.
