Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story Towards the end of the week, something happened that I totally wasn't expecting and it could change my life. The toilet in our bathroom was jammed and couldn't be flushed. My wife went down to the main office and got a plunger. She worked and worked at it, but could not get the toilet to flush. I'm not sure what came over me, but I walked in and said, “Do you want me to try?” She gave me the plunger, and without much thought, I started plunging away, and within a few minutes, the toilet was working. At first, I smiled, then I realized what had just happened. My wife has a reputation for fixing everything and anything. In contrast, I have a reputation for not being able to fix anything. I've enjoyed that reputation, and it has a lot of benefits. But now, I fixed something that The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage could not fix. My reputation is ruined. As we were driving home in The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage's sissy band, she looked at me and said, “That was a wonderful vacation, wasn't it?” I just smiled. A verse of Scripture came to my mind as we were driving. Isaiah 55:11, “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” It's God's word that really makes a difference in my life. The Bible is absolutely true to God's heart and will. Tweet
