A Snow Day

I decided to take a “snow day”…there were no jobs pending and no real reason to leave the warmth of my abode. It made me think and wonder if cavemen had the same option. Could they just hold up in the cave next to the fire being lazy and drawing on walls? I suspect the only thing that would force them outside would be hunger pains. Hunger pains…that’s a sobering thought…not that I have ever really been hungry but just the thought of it gives me reason for concern. Business has been scary slow. What if the phone never rings? What if the economy gets so bad that no one needs their stuff fixed? How would I survive? I’m not a hunter and the only gathering I’ve ever done is gathering eatables from the grocery store shelves.

Just as I settled in to write on the walls of my cave the phone rang with a request for help. Saved from a day of worrying…I bundled up and headed out into the damp cold to see what was wrong with my customer’s air compressor.

Dear Lord Jesus,
Thanks for the reminder,
That You are my minder,
There is nothing to fear,
When I have You so near.
Amen
