I VERY MUCH dislike being "under the weather" because my A++ personality finds it a "waste of time." Curious to see where the phrase came from I found it in The Phrase Finder: It comes from a maritime source. In the old days, when a sailor was unwell, he was sent down below to help his recovery, under the deck and away from the weather. As of late, it's allowed me to spend time creating my blog which has be so enJOYable. What I don't like about being "under the weather" is that I can lose my focus on spending time with the Lord & prayer because I don't have the mental focus. It seems ironic because that is exactly when I need to be with Him. In my prayer notebook under PRAISE is this thought - When I am exhausted, I NEED to praise You with every ounce of energy I have left. Then You will give me the strength I need. Praise breaks a negative spirit & allows me to hear You more clearly.Tuesday, March 1, 2011
