This is a story of a lady with a mixture of high intelligence and stupidity. She usually enjoys life. Sometimes too many negative problems hit her at one time. She feels overwhelmed and tries to surrender her problems to a loving God.
However, there are times she takes back a lot of those problems to handle herself. This is where the stupidity comes in. She manages to antagonize at least one other person while doing and trying too hard to resolve those problems. She prays to God, "Please forgive me. I have really blundered." God listens and through His gentle voice says, "I forgive you. But you must take the consequences of your own actions. Next time, how about leaving your problems with me to work out according to my purpose for you."
This time she listens with all her heart. And life, temporarily, becomes smoother. She finds she has an overwhelming love for everyone including herself. She realizes life is tough but God is good and very real. Now she knows it's the time to tell others about Christ's sacrifice and love. Especially since the country is in such turmoil. So many young and older citizens are choosing alcohol, drugs and promiscuity. There are also numerous human beings around Williamsport and elsewhere that are homeless. God save our country.
