It is better to Smile than Stress


I received this thank you card in the mail this afternoon. It was good timing as I have just come back from the car wash and discovered a large scratch on my rear bumper bar. I don't remember seeing this scratch but can't prove that the car wash was responsible either. I've experienced this before with my previous car - they will just deny it! I think it was the same car wash come to think of it - may be time to find a new one.

This card and the contents of the card from C has me thinking - it's only a scratch and at least it's not on the metal body of the car where it would rust. There are more important things in this world like smiling, singing and the words I am about to share at church houseparty this Saturday. God would not want me to get stressed about such a trivial thing even though I pride myself on keeping my car in perfect condition!

Lord, forgive me for being so trivial and proud!

This quirky card (filled with words of wisdom and encouragement - thanks so much C!) is made by my talented friend C. You can see more of this sort of creativity at http://www.rosebarnett.blogspot.com/.
