Wrestling Season Starts today!

Well my little boy begins his 8th grade wrestling season, this is his 4th year, and he loves it. It helps keep him active and healthy during the winter months when there is no football!! because he loves football! We read a devo out of Daily Bread and it was great. It was about "Selling Out" and who or what do we sell out to. Jesus or the World. I was just as ministered to it as he read it. The kid has always loved the Lord, but as kids go through the teen years, for some reason, things from childhood just leave, is what I'm observing, and that is not cool, so just more proof to Keep on teaching and guiding, and holding on to the promise that "train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it". I am claiming that promise for all my kids. I know I messed up a lot in their "training" so I am also praying that the Lord steps in and raises them up the way He want them raised :)

I pray for all the boys (and girls if any) today and ask that The Lord be gracious and keep them safe, while they are good sportsmen. I pray especially for bubby, that some may trust in chariots or horses, but that He trust in the name of the Lord God, the maker of heaven and earth.

Last night, I have to just walk away from my husband at times, because he just pulls information straight out of places unknown. Bubby was talking about "making weight" and was doing some extra exercises after dinner, and I suggested a fiber tablet with some water, to help keep things "moving". It is definately not a stool softener, but its' fiber, and we all know that fiber keeps things at a consistency to "not bind". Well my husband was reading the bottle, and went off and accused me of being so screwed up and not knowing what I was talking about, and for him not to take it "because its for irritable bowel syndrome".

I guess he thinks IBS means **(gross word) diarrhea and that fiber makes it "stick together more".

When in all reality the bottled suggested that it "helps manage IBS" But, if anyone has any knowledge of IBS, knows that it is many different forms . . . Anyway
I walked upstairs and tried to ignore him. I really get so annoyed at him, because he thinks he knows it all, but yet he doesn't practice ANY of what he thinks he knows, and most of the "information" he has is just guessing. And the the enemy of my soul thinks he has intervened to take my focus off of my Savior.

Ok, enough vent of him. I lay all my annoyance and irritation of him at the foot of the cross, and Lord, please cleanse me of the irritability I have of this irritant. I know it may appear to be impossible, but with You, Lord, all things are possible.

Hebrew 12:15-16 See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. 16See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son. 17Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. He could bring about no change of mind, though he sought the blessing with tears.

Psalm 116:5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;
Yes, our God is merciful.
6 The LORD preserves the simple;
I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Return to your rest, O my soul,
For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.

Amen!
