Is there anything worse than an seasonal cold? You know the kind....coughing, aching, stuffy head and miserable!

Add all these symptoms with holiday preparations and the demands of work and you have one miserable girl.

Today we loaded a container to Tajikistan. We had almost 50 people show up to help! So not only did we hand load 988 boxes of clothing, we were also able to dismantle typewriters ( for scrap metal), box more clothing, and move items to the warehouse for the next container on Tuesday to the Marshal Islands. Wow, it was a tiring but remarkable day!

I was really discouraged this morning ......tired, sick, cold, overwhelmed and disappointed by the lack of response I had gotten when I was called around for help. I really was "sporting a 'tude" by the time I got to the mission to prepare for the task at hand.

What a delightful surprise. People just kept pouring in to help. So I repented of my bad mood and the Lord and both had a good laugh. Why did we laugh?

Me: for thinking I was God's last resource!
God: for knowing I didn't even make the list!

Question: How do you make God laugh?
Answer: Tell Him your plans!
