An overwhelming feeling of dread fills my soul.

Hiding from fear in the TV, I look for help by opening my prayer journal and writing,

“Help Jesus, Help!”

Something in my soul shifts!

Still feeling in need of some courage I ask,

 “Bart, can you help?

He helps me bring all the equipment out and we talk about the work that needs to get done. Once I am settled he leaves me to enjoy the work and I start digging.

Working for a few hours I feel accomplished.  The thought of running enters my mind. Putting my tools away, I change shoes, grab a dog, and head to the cemetery.

Missing the setting sun I watch the clouds change colors and am pleased with my run after digging.

Bart asks, “How did your day turn out?”

“It turned out to be a wonderful day! It all changed when I wrote in my journal, ‘Help Jesus, Help!’“

Not much has changed but my attitude. There is still too much work but I now believe I am able to accomplish it all!

It is amazing how a shift in thinking and a little prayer can change the outcome of a day.

GOD IS SO VERY GOOD!
