Manure

A real 'godly' subject, isn't it?

Monday greeted me with losing all my computer information, the second time in 4 months - lost file allocation tables and then all information on the hard drive.

Nursing an upper respiratory infection, t
Then, this morning, MCI told me that they cancelled my email account!
Well, some things are sacred! My MCI account gone? I gave up.

I mean, you can only take the bad stuff for so long!

And in my huff, and in my puff, that STILL SMALL VOICE encouraged me.
With one word: MANURE.

Aw, come on LORD, Manure???

And that STILL SMALL VOICE let me know how beautiful things grow with a dose
of manure. It does make a difference, you know!

I don't care what you call it - Manure, caca, doodoo, poopoo (G-rated
versions here)
Yep, things go better with caca.

Isn't it great the way that the LORD encourages us?
Well, He got me to thank Him for the manure! And i have not been on any
drugs, hehhee. Sometimes we go through some pretty rough waters. I don't
think any of us will get to the level that Paul did, what with
shipwrecks,beatings etc,
but we do suffer from sleeplessness, persecutions, deceitfulness, etc.

So, when it seems like life is pouring on the manure onto you----

REJOICE!!!!! and again i say,
Rejoice!
There is lush green growth that will come!
trust Him!
Manure is good, and it makes a difference in the lushness of the growth down
the road.

LORD, thank You
for the poopoo!
