the waiting room - woops (think an unedited one went through)

I wish I could actually send you this post immediately but I have not figured out how to post from my blackberry yet.

So here is what I wrote as I sat in the doctor's waiting room:

Jared read our daily devotional today. It sure hit home.

It was about Bethany Hamilton, the 13 year old surfer who was on her way to surfing stardom before her arm was bitten off by a shark.

This is what the devotional said:
"After the shark took her arm, her spirits didn't dampen. In fact, she told one of her friends that she was this happened to her because then she could tell the whole world about God.Even without her arm, Hamilton knows her future is bright - whether its in surfing, photography, or whatever else she wants to do. With God as her Savior, Bethany's not worried. She even competed again ten weeks after the accident. As followers of Jesus Christ, we shouldn't fret about what's going to happen to us, either. No matter what happens - good or bad - God can use it for our benefit."

Here we go...
