Today is Tuesday, January 27th, 2015; Karen's Korner #2992

Yesterday was the day that everything backed up, but maybe the sewer!

We all have them. I had wondered how it might be without Jim to help me act and think; decide.

I got to my computer. Couldn't send or receive any messages; I couldn't even get my email box to open which suspended any contact lists to find phone numbers and mailing addresses!

Went down into the basement to begin washing some clothes. There was some dry brine on the floor near the water softener. Now what!

But then I remembered that God and I had decided this was going to be a good day ("This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it." - Psalm 118:24).

No time to be frazzled. Time to rejoice and watch as things began to play out.

Call the company which supplies my computer service. No one answered; left a message.

Where did we buy our water softener and when? I couldn't remember. I called a friend (couldn't email, it wasn't working); she gave me a couple of possibilities. I called two places; one of them was where we had purchased it a number of years ago. They'd send out a repair person to find out what to do.

An hour after I reported about my computer, I could get on-line but my email still didn't work.

After another hour, I got a call. The service tech was able to get my computer back up and running.

I had had to wait and watch and work! But there was nothing to spoil my 'joy' because 'the Lord' had made my day!

Same Lord that wants to make my day today...........and yours!

Time to 'rejoice and be glad in it'!
