That Priceless Moment

For about a week I have had this weariness over me and I could not figure out what it was about but feeling it was there, stealing my joy.

Well, I knew the devil was trying to do his work and he was succeeding in one way or another so I stopped him once and then again, twice eliminating a problem in my life.

I was beginning to get my joy back, doing for others as God would like us to do, but there was still that little nagging feeling deep inside that I could not get rid of.

Tonight I was in the dining room/ living room area with Tony, He was watching T.V. and I was on my laptop working online at the dining room table when I had a feeling, it was boredom, and frustration not knowing what to do about this problem.

I turned off the computer and I went into the kitchen, still a mess, I  needed to cook dinner and put away all the fruit Tony bought today, plus I needed to home can so I got busy.

I do my best thinking while I am cleaning the kitchen.

Next thing I know I have these numbers in my head while I am washing dishes, I went back to the computer, turned it on and looked up something because the number did not match up. I took out my phone and did the math, I already knew the numbers in my head but I wanted to make sure.

I just started laughing out loud! That priceless moment when you know what that ” in the back of your mind nagging feeling is all about.”

I went back to work in the kitchen, the more I thought the cleaner the kitchen got. More and more voices of the past came flooding it as I cooked dinner.The more I smiled.

My favorite preacher man Joel Osteen ” Don`t let anyone steal your joy” I smiled and cooked.”You do not live to please people, you live to please God.” still smiling.

Remembering a walk and a talk with God, Thanking him for the abilities he has given me, the people he has put in my life.

Of coarse Tony asked what is that all about and me being me I said ” ding ding ding, give the girl a cookie!” and told him what was happening at the moment, but he knew what that phrase meant when I said it, that I know what they do not want me to know and no one told me, well I do give credit to God, after all he has kept me sane.
