Okay so makybe I am taking this verse to another extreme but I felt like this is a good time to share this. There are Sundays I will admit that I am frustrated by the number of people who are missing in church, wednesdays that I am frustrated with the number of teens missing, and there are certainly days I don't like exactly what I am doing with the Betty Griffin House. But, I think of Romans 5:3-5 and I realize it is all of GOd's plan for my life and I remember what doesn't kill me will make me stronger. THis little story is quite hilarious. I can't take credit for it, it was forwarded to me by Frank Northcutt.

Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would
> share my dilemma with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all.
> Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a
> few technicalities of my job.
> As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to
> the office.
> It's a wetsuit. This time of year the water is quite cool.
>
> So what we do to keep warm is this:
>
> We have a diesel-powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of
> equipment sucks the water out of the sea, heats it to a delightful
> temperature, then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose which
> is taped to the air hose.
>
> Now this sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times
> with no complaints.
>
> What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is take the hose
> and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit. This floods my whole suit with
> warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi. Everything was going well
> until all of a sudden, my bum started to itch.
>
> So, of course, I scratched it
> This only made things worse.
>
> Within a few seconds my bum started to burn!
> I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done.
>
> In agony I realized what had happened. The hot water machine had sucked
> up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit.
>
> Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't
> stick to it.
>
> However, the crack of my bum was not as fortunate.
>
> When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the
> jellyfish into the crack of my bum.
>
> I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator.
> His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with five
> other divers, were all laughing hysterically.
>
> Needless to say I aborted the dive.
>
> I was instructed to make three agonizing in-water decompression stops
> totalling thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface to begin
> my chamber dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was
> wearing nothing but my brass helmet.
>
> As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running
> down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my bum
> as soon as I got in the chamber.
>
> The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't poo for two days because my
> bum was swollen shut.
>
> So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much

>
> Now repeat to yourself, I love my job, I love my job, I love my job.
>
> Remember whenever you have a bad day, ask yourself, is this a jellyfish
> kind of bad day?
>
> May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day!!!!!
