Not a good day at all.  I think the cold that Colton has my system has flipped out and is fighting.  I feel like I haven't slept in a week and I have swollen lymph nodes all over. Plus, I have this super metallic taste... or maybe more like a really nasty pill taste that seems to be coming from my throat.  It has been bugging me for a few days but today it is much worse.   When I woke up this morning all I could think was to do my Bible reading and ministry.  Amazingly Jehovah gave me the strength to do that.  It was really a struggle to write today, or talk... 

Actually, this is interesting to me, Steph made me breakfast and we were talking... but mostly, I can't talk, I can't figure out words or process.  Yet, here I am typing away and not having trouble.  Actually i'm not thinking about what I am writing, but when i am really trying to think is where I have the problem.  It's just seems odd too me. 

Ok, So I am near the end of 1 Samuel and I just went through the story about David and Abbigail, and the humility and respect they both displayed.  David with Saul and  with Abbigail and her good for nothing husband.  I was really struck by that humility, no body talks like that anymore.  Not counting the faithful slave and handful of others... Actually, I remember this one time, that our C.O. Bro Spencer was talking to a sister and he forgot her name, and he asked what he could do to make it up to her, and she said, "Kiss my feet".  and in a blink he was on the floor kissing her feet.  That is the humility I wish I had.  We are servants of Jehovah and of each other.  I feel like all I do is "what is convenient for me." and in my book that isn't humility.  So I want to continue to work on this.
