Thanks Bethie, I wanted to post something else and you just reminded me...
Cat, PRAY over everything.
A church friend did remodel a job for me but I had to call him back because of a problem (small) leak. I did not want it to become a problem between us and when he came to fix it, he said, "we'll figure this out in Jesus name."
His verbal affirmation stuck with me becuase the problem was a challenge when he first did the job (it had do do with plumbing angles under the sink, the garbage disposal and deep sink I had pre purchased). He was a professional but even professionals are challenged but he gave the problem over to the Lord and the Lord showed him how to figure out the problem and the repair has NEVER give me another problem 8 years.
When we pray, we open the door for God to do the work and the more difficult the challenge, the more He gets the credit when the problem is solved. When we ask, the problem is not always resolved the way we want it to be resolved but nevertheless, the "resolution" (whatever it is) is designed specifically for our situation.
Bethie,
You said it, people around here are more than willing to help, in whatever way they can, YOU my darling have certainly been so helpful to me! Now, I must grab my thermocoupler, mount my horse and search for other damsels in distress..... <the sound of gallopping hooves fades into the distance>
p.s. Cat, thanks for the fruit, oh, so yummmy!
