What happens when the very, very prim and proper old, Chinese lady tells a slightly dirty joke? You buss out laughing. I think it was mostly in shock because who would expect this lady with pearls to tell such a joke. But I think I should have suspected something based on her shoes. Those shoes were everything but prim and proper. I would totally wear them.
TODAY’S THANKFUL TALLY
- The bank took out more than they were supposed to for the loan. They are supposed to reverse the funds, but so far it has not been. The upside? I have no funds for another bill and to put gasoline in the vehicle. I am trying to look on the bright side. And I’m looking forward to the testimony that would come from this story.
- An absolutely fun day in training.
- Completely unexpected joke. No words. No words.
- Daniel 6-10
You know …that song. “Even if” by MercyMe. Habakkuk 3:17-18.
Even if.
Because you are worthy to be praised.
Even if I’m in debt for the rest of my life, I will still sing your praise.
Even if I never get married, I’ll still worship you.
Even if you strike me with arrows, I will still honour you.
Even if…I will still live for you.
Because even if everything looks wrong, you still love me.
Even if I feel weird, I still love you. There is no comparison at all: your love far outstrips mine but I do love you.
Yahweh and in spite of all this, I still pray for your healing. I’m still thankful for your restoration. I pray for your divine, supernatural intervention in my finances, cause I definitely cannot even pretend to do this on my own. Restore Yahweh, to your will.
