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. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story 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.
