Foot in Mouth Again ... Bridle my Tongue, Lord

Lord,

My foot in my mouth again! I promise, prayerfully, it will never happen again!

Just like then, I was wrong! So wrong!

Went to work but came home early ... This mess with 44 had me sick to my stomach.

He was on the answering machine ... "No, I not seeing anyone else!" He stated that he was very offended. Thought I was screening my calls ....

I called him back .. he was quite stern with me. He agreed to come by today. I thought it would be about dinner time .... but no, lunch hour.

That's when it happened ....

I saw the dinner room table set up with candles in heart shaped boxes of candy.

Went into the frigidaire and there was the dinner 44 had prepared for us! How small I felt ... and a bottle of wine! The same as  the one at his house ... sparkling green apple ... But I am on a fast this week of no breads and only water to drink. So, the green apple will have to wait.

I guess I do need to get a phone ...

When 44 arrived, I met him with the hugest apology and promised never to doubt him again.

So, I heated up the dinner he cooked red beans and rice, fried chicken and greens. I fed him and then I FED him to make my amends.

Now, he sleeps .... I'll never doubt him again, I promise.

Thanks again Lord for chastisement,
Put me in  an oven and refine me Lord, so that I may be worthy of this righteous man. Amen
Yo

Zechariah 13:9

New International Version (NIV)

⁹ This third I will put into the fire;
I will refine them like silver
and test them like gold.
They will call on my name
and I will answer them;
I will say, ‘They are my people,’
and they will say, ‘The LORD is our God.’
