Shoes, Figures, and Dates

Romans 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

I think I'm doing just fine, then Christ shows me that I'm really not. The other day, my husband hired someone to repair some things. I came out to get my breakfast to take back to the bedroom and eat, so I wasn't in the middle of the repairs. I looked at my left foot to figure out why it was hurting. It turned out that I had two totally different shoes on!

Then, I was trying to calculate some things and found I made lots of errors that I had to go back and correct afterward. Also, there's the matter of posting somewhere between 6 to 8 blogs on the wrong date. Fortunately, Christ had it dawn on me that I had done that, so I could rectify it today. 

It's like Christ keeps showing me that I'm not as fine as I think. He's showing me that I am hiding behind the business of dividing Dad's things, finances, writing thank you cards, etc. to avoid dealing with my loss. I really miss my dad, which really surprises me how much, because I'm very happy he's in heaven. I'm very happy he passed peacefully. I'm very happy my family was there to support me through this. I have had doctors and nurses trying to prepare me for the last four or five years that Dad wasn't going to make it much longer. I feel so very blessed to have had the last 5+ years with Dad through this phase of his life, so why am I so sad when I have so many things that I'm happy about? I miss my Dad....
