Here mousey mousey mousey.....

So, those that keep up with me on facebook and on here know that I'm having a mouse issue in the apartment. Well, I guess its more than an issue and more like an infestation, YUCK! So far as of this morning, I've caught 6 mice. yeah... :-/ gross I know. Anywho, those who are closest to me know I've been struggling quite a bit with all of it and more that have really knocked me on my butt. I've been getting some great advice from lots of people and well, today I finally asked for prayer from a friend when I found that my living room power blew the circuit. I feel like I'm living in a death trap, is what I told her. And she challenged me to watch what I say and to not even let words that tear down come out of my mouth. How right she is. At the same time I was talking to a distant cousin online whose been tracking whats going on and he also was encouraging me, and before I knew it I had typed "My God's bigger than this I'll be just fine." Where has that been? Where has my head been? From there my thoughts spiraled into the saying: Don't tell God how big your problems are, tell your problems how big God is. So true isn't it? Really in the scheme of mice and power outage only in my living room, God is still good, and still seated on high. How quickly I allow circumstances to drag me down when really I should be lifting my eyes to heaven and allow God to continue to lift me up again. So I cranked up Bring The Rain by Mercy Me and I danced and worshiped and even sung arms held high at the top of my lungs...

"And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain"
