The Whammy!
I’m not much into game shows, but seems like there was a some kind of game show that had this weird beast that carried what was called a whammy. When you chose the wrong square, or something like that, you got the whammy — the beast came out and whammied your score and you lost all of your money.
Well, I’ve had a great month of being outdoors and enjoying all sorts of cool experiences on top of a very busy time of ministry. It finally caught up with me Sunday afternoon. Some weird beast entered my body and started giving me the whammy left and right. After coughing my head off Sunday night, I went in and got a whammy in the back side — an injection — and a couple of scripts of things to take the next week. Now I need to lay low as the weather is coming in and about to put a major whammy on us.
Funny how our bodies remind us that there are limits that we all have and when we push them, or try to ignore them, we are forced to lie down and rest. Today is my study day, and with the weather whammy and the getting sick whammy, I’m pretty sure I’m going to study and rest and hopefully hear some clear word from God as I seek Him in Scripture, prayer, and silence.
Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has been good to you (Psalm 116:7).
