We all have those days that challenge us. On Thursday I had to stay extra late for a car ad and the resulting pain in my neck moved to my right shoulder. This was the good shoulder. I've been struggling with on and off pain for two months in my left shoulder. I guess my right shoulder wanted to join in the fun.
Yesterday, my great Aunt Pootie stopped by with her friend Cokie. They came in the morning. Left to do a bit of shopping all over creation and came back for dinner at 6pm.
In the meantime between visits, my shoulder decided to seize up. No matter how I moved it hurt.
Earlier in the morning I had bought some joint pain medicine. Just over the counter stuff. Little did I know I'd need it later in the afternoon. I bought it on a whim to help with the swelling in my hands and joints.
God works that way sometimes, doesn't he? He whispers to us things we need to know in order to help us. God knew that pain was in my future and he had a plan for it. So, if God cares about the little things in your life, how much more must he care about the big things.
Pain teaches us to stop and listen and look for clues. I hope today you stop and listen to God and what he's whispering to you.
Blessings on your path today.
