Ok. This is what I felt and looked like this morning when I woke up. The sad part is, is that I stayed liked this all day. I blame most of this on the all the weather people stressing me out. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way I do, but I am really tired of hearing of the hurricane. I think that they started talking about it way to soon, I think that that it ought to be a law that they can only talk about it once it gets into the gulf. It always changes when it gets in there anyway. Linzy and I have been praying every since the weather people have been speaking doom and gloom over it. We decided to rebuke what ever they said and speak positive and life over the storm. What ever happened to speaking things into existence? Our household is firm believers that we can speak things into existence, God says we reap what we sow, being that our word is seed, it would only make sense to speak life. The other Great thing, is remembering that God is so much bigger than any storm and that he is wonderfully known for calming the storms. All the negativity that I have heard on the t.v. last night and this morning had really sucked all the life out of me. Isn't it amazing that negativity wears you out. Being negative is actually hard work. I woke this morning kinda angry that so many people have spoken so much doom over this. Wouldn't it be so nice if these people would have woke up and prayed about the storm before broadcasting the news to us? I think we would have a different out come. This is just the icing on the cake! (no punt intended for my sister's business) The absolutely most ridiculous and dare I say the s word, yes I dare, STUPID thing I have heard this week is this, and I quote " We need to really pray hard and then prepare for the worst". Am I the only one that finds this statement making them choose if they want to laugh out loud and throw an apple at the guy or hurl their recent ingestion of a frozen nutty bar. Yeah its a hard choice. Pray but expect the worse? Hmmm. Why even pray at all if your expecting the worst? I can't quote scripture that well, but I know I have read that we are suppose to "whatever things you ask in prayer, believing you will receive" that kinda is opposite of what was quote earlier. The best part is Linzy picked up on this while we was listening to the radio!! If you all know Linzy, she basically called the man an idiot (which I had to correct her and tell her that it isnt nice to call people idiots, even if they deserve it) and she said he needs another job! Smart kid.And last but certainly not least the weather man last night said (boy is he a genius) "the direction this storm takes is really gonna depend on whether it goes to the left or to the right" here's your sign!!
Keep us in your prayers, we are leaving tonight to go to work. And if any of you see Opie walking around the neighborhood, please put him back in the fence or take him home with you!!!
Still newlyweds, just better haircuts.
This was back in the trailer when we moved from Long Beach to Picayune. Man that seems like forever ago and but yet like yesterday. Weird.
