I've had a lot of health issues during this past year, and now that I seem to be over them, something else has taken their place.

and I got my sneezing fit all over the front of her. Oh boy! Was I in 
trouble. At least I didn't sneeze it in my wife's direction or that 
might've been the end of my sneezing fits for the rest of my life. 

At the time, I didn't know what to do because the front of that waitress
was full of yucky, sneezing phlegm. What do you do in a situation like 
that? 

I apologized and asked her if there was anything I could do to help. She
looked at me and said, "No, you've done enough already." Then she 
walked away to the back of the restaurant. 

I don't know when I was more humiliated than at that time. But when I
sat back and regained some control of myself, I realized that there 
were customers all around, and all of them saw exactly what I did. I 
just felt like everybody in that restaurant was staring at me. 

It's not that I don't like attention; I'm just not too fond of this kind
of attention. 

I leaned across the table and asked The Gracious Mistress of the
Parsonage, "Do you know how I can take back that sneeze?" She just 
looked at me and then looked down at her plate. That's the first time I 
remember that she couldn't figure out a solution to a problem. 

I then thought about a Bible verse, Romans 8:28. “And we know that all
things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are 
the called according to his purpose.” 

No matter my problem, if I trust God I can get through it.
