Suddenly I feel You holding me
I honestly don’t know how I made it through Sunday. I worked for about 12 hours straight, with my only breaks being the 1 or so of driving from one place to another and the half hour for lunch. And I would say 90% of my day was on my feet. There was one particularly tense moment in the day. PSR was over, I was at Church getting ready for Confirmation. Things were going pretty good. Then it happened - a paper jam in the printer. An easy enough thing to fix. Except that the printer didn’t think I fixed it. I tried for 10-15 minutes to fix it. Opening all the drawers and closing them again. Opening all the side things and closing them. Pressing on things where the paper was jammed. Nothing worked! So now, my only way of printing things from my computer, and my only way of coping things was gone. And I definitely was not finished with printing and copying. And, I had just wasted 10-15 minutes that I needed to finish getting things ready.
I had a little freak-out moment. Then, for the first time that day, I think, I paused. I had a little convo with God. “God, I don’t know how I made it this far today, but I’m not sure if I can even go further.” After that convo, things got better. I never did get the printer fixed that night (apparently, all you had to do was turn it off then back on again). But I did realize there was another computer there hooked up to another printer. There was a copier downstairs, that wasn’t the greatest copier ever, but it still copied things. And somehow, I got everything done, even after wasting that time. And the night went great (I’ve even heard so from more than one source). And now I’m convinced that I didn’t make it through Sunday. God made it through Sunday. God made everything great. God just carried me through it all. Thank you, Lord! Now if You could just carry me through this week too, that’d be great!
