When you are hurting,
and your body aches . . .
when your every nerve
gives you the shakes.
When your knees are sore,
and your legs give out
whenever you try to rise
and all you can do is shout.
When your neck is stiff,
and your back won’t bend
when pains shooting message
to your brain begins to send.
When your every move,
causes you to go “ouch”
when you can’t get up
from your chair or couch.
When your hips stop moving,
and your ankles buckle in
before you fall over . . .
pray for His strength within!
~~~~~~~~
” And even to your old age I am he;
and even to hoar hairs will I carry you:
I have made, and I will bear;
even I will carry, and will deliver you.”

God must have a sense of humor for the week after I wrote this my back went out and I’ve been laid up since then. I am only able to sit at my computer for 5 minutes at a time and each time I get up I go . . . you guessed it . . . “OUCH” and it brings a smile to my face each time! ~ Blessings ~

When I wrote this I had my normal aches and pains . . . then my back went out and I thought God must have been giving me a warning. I can’t count the number of times I yelled “Ouch” in the past few days! ~ Blessings ~
