Ode To A Scaredy – Cat or All Dressed Up With Nowhere To Go!


So here it is almost 3 mos. post op after a total hip replacement and I’m dressed for Church, ready to go, got my favorite leather boots on!  It’s raining and freezing cold, but I think nothing of it, until I step out onto my sidewalk with my crutch in hand and start to slip, it’s a solid sheet of ice!  I go back inside, change my boots to snow boots, try again with the same result, so I nix the sidewalk and head out through the garage. So now I think if I just stay close to the parked cars as I walk down the driveway, I’ll have something to grab if I start to slip, but again solid ice!  Then I decide I could just walk through the snow on the other side of the cars to get to the one I want, so I start trudging through it only to realize that I still have to stand on a patch of ice to get in the car!  Now I’m really bummed!  Next, I think to myself, I’ll have to call someone to come get me, but then I figure out that the driveway is so steep they can’t get up and I can’t get down!  Now I go inside and change my clothes!  Drat!  Winter you’ve won this round!   But I’m confident that the Lord knows, that I know, WHERE to find HIM!   His Word is ALIVE & I KNOW WHERE TO FIND IT!  THE B-I-B-L-E!
