That is NOT my problem!!!!







Good morning friends and happy Friday, I pray your day is as beautiful as ours is here in Utah, the sun is shining, there is a mild breeze and we are at 37 degrees...the birds seem to be loving the warmer temperatures as they are singing loud and proud this morning.

In prayer this morning I said my normal, usual prayers asking for all things good for you and yours, I asked our Father in heaven to bless you with joy and laughter this day, to take any pain and turn it into comfort, to take any anguish and turn it in to calm and to take any stress and turn it in to peace. I had a very special prayer request last evening about a troubled pregnancy, a loving grandmother gave us the honor of praying for her daughter and unborn baby as there have been troubles. Father you know of who we speak, we ask you to lay hands upon this beautiful daughter with child and take any problems that are brewing, allow your strength to be mommy's and baby's if this be your will. I ask all of these favors and mercies in the name of our savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

I came across this little story and thought it very ingenious...I hope you will as well. Have a wonderful day and if you see a problem, don't turn a blind eye! 




That's Not My Problem

A mouse looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package; what food might it contain?

He was aghast to discover that it was a mouse trap!

Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning, "There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house."

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell you this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me; I cannot be bothered by it."

The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mouse trap in the house."

"I am so very sorry Mr. Mouse," sympathized the pig, "but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; be assured that you are in my prayers."

The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, "Like wow, Mr. Mouse, a mouse trap; am I in grave danger, Duh?"

So the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected to face the farmer's mouse trap alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught.

In the darkness, she did not see that it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.

The snake bit the farmer's wife.

The farmer rushed her to the hospital.

She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient.

His wife's sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife did not get well, in fact, she died, and so many people came for her funeral the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide meat for all of them to eat.

So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think that it does not concern you, remember that when the least of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
