The last 3 days have been humbling. I put some crazy acid stuff on my chin and my little chin got infected. And poor Raul, he's seen 3 days of tears and obsessing and there was nothing he could do. Thankfully, my bud, Deb, sympathized and nudged me to see her dermatologist. Here's the dealio: First, the derm. office got me in right away! Then, when I got there, I only waited 5 min.'s before they took me back. And then, when I got to the room, I only waited 5 more min.'s before seeing the doc! Then, the antibiotic I was prescribed is part of a promo my pharmacy is having, so I got it for free! Ya know...life's like a Dairy Queen swirly cone - a delicate, intricate swirl of life's TRIALS and God's MERCY. Sometimes, 'cause it's all swirled together, I miss it. Today, I'm so grateful I didn't.

That's a 'refreshing' comment... hope you'll be better soon! :)
Deb - you are right! And the meds are working, man!
Arturo - there's nothing more refreshing than me posting about a disgusting sore on my chin, amen?! : )
Hope you feel better soon Heather!
It is so cool to be able to slow down every once in a while (and to notice when God does it for us!!)so we can get to appreciate and be thankful for the small things...the sprinkles in the swirly cone of life. :-)

ah, lily, you're awesome! you have SO much leadHership in you, we're so blessed to have you at FRC!
I love this post! The last two lines just captured me. I pray that my eyes can always notice those little things, the ways in which God tells us I LOVE YOU. I'm glad I stopped by to read this. Made me smile!
Thanks for your kind words HeatHer :-) and thank you for this amazing blog...
Your call to LeadHership and the gift you have of seeing God in the everyday... in the most unexpected situations and places...is such a great reminder that God is there, in every single moment...right there with us!
Blessings,
Lily C. :-)
