The Wrong Turn

Kathleen's dog, Sammy, ended up having surgery, and now has to sit still for two weeks!  And then limited movement for 6 more weeks.  We have her in the front porch, which we have turned into a cozy little room for her.  She cries, and cries and wants to go out and run with Beamer and bark at the neighbor dogs and any newcomers.  She kept crying the first night (night before last) and everytime I heard her, I would get up and take her outside for her constitutional.  But, she just wants out.  After the third time, I was sleepy and twisted to get out of bed and I got a jolt as a stabbing pain rose up in my side.  Again!! --my pirformis muscle has pinched my sciatic nerve. 

I've been in therapy for it, but have to get it approved to continue with the therapy.  Today, saturday, I woke and I couldn't even hardly pick up the babies, so I tried to find a physical therapist.  There is no physical therapist available at any of the clinics, hospitals, or offices anywhere--unless you have already made an appointment during their office hours.  So, this is going to be a long weekend....  me and Sammy are both unhappy campers.

I see that some of our candidates say that God wanted them to run for President.  What I want to know, is what lead them to believe that God wants them to be president?   We are all capable of believing that God is behind us on a mission, but did God really "say" it.  Or, is it their belief, or a prayer in their heart, that God will answer their prayer.  Prayers aren't alway answered the way we think they are.  

Whatever comes, when the end of times are here, God has a plan and we just have to wait for Him to unfold it in His way, on His terms, and on His timeline.   God be with us all.

Yes God see's the wider story. We want it now, but sometimes, God says wait. There is a new English series on the Titanic coming to Oz T.V. shortly. It is fashioned on a true love story between a doctor and a nurse. She was on the Titanic, and he was suppose to be, yet his plans were changed. She was in one of the last lifeboats lowered to the ocean as the Titanic was sinking. He would have been left behind so would have perished. She was an expert rower, so was able to help save all those on her boat. Such a miracle. They later married. This would never have come to pass if God had not intervened.
