Rainy days and Wednesdays...

So, I'm noticing a theme if my life recently. Wednesdays are a BUMMER of a day for me. Last Wednesday I was in triage at work and got yelled at by everyone. Doctors, nurses, patients, pharmacists and desk ops. Then I found out one of my favorite patients was going on hospice. So, I left work beaten up and tearful. Today I was in the infusion room and we were slamming busy because of the holiday on Monday. I didn't get yelled by everyone, only the pharmacist (this time I snapped back) So, again I left work beaten up and tearful and it was raining. I got home to new windows being installed upstairs. (yeah) but, that left my house in a mess, and there was dog hair everywhere. And Sabueso had been sick in Drew's room and Drew only partially cleaned it up. So, I angrily finished that, and vacuumed the house. Robert thoughtfully took the dogs for a walk and then mopped the bathroom floor for me. (thanks honey) I think that it is because Wednesday night is the night our community group meets and that has really become a life line for me. I think that the ploy to the enemy of my soul is to have me so tired and cranky I don't want to go. Well I'm saying out loud "get thee behind me Satan". I need the fellowship of other Christians and I am always grateful for the time we have to fellowship together.

Psalm 55
For the director of music. With stringed instruments. Amaskil of David.
1 Listen to my prayer, O God,
do not ignore my plea;
2 hear me and answer me.
My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught
3 at the voice of the enemy,
at the stares of the wicked;
for they bring down suffering upon me
and revile me in their anger.
4 My heart is in anguish within me;
the terrors of death assail me.
5 Fear and trembling have beset me;
horror has overwhelmed me.
6 I said, "Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest-
7 I would flee far away
and stay in the desert;
Selah
8 I would hurry to my place of shelter,
far from the tempest and storm."
9 Confuse the wicked, O Lord, confound their speech,
for I see violence and strife in the city.
10 Day and night they prowl about on its walls;
malice and abuse are within it.
11 Destructive forces are at work in the city;
threats and lies never leave its streets.
12 If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it;
if a foe were raising himself against me,
I could hide from him.
13 But it is you, a man like myself,
my companion, my close friend,
14 with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship
as we walked with the throng at the house of God.
15 Let death take my enemies by surprise;
let them go down alive to the grave,
for evil finds lodging among them.
16 But I call to God,
and the LORD saves me.
17 Evening, morning and noon
I cry out in distress,
and he hears my voice.
18 He ransoms me unharmed
from the battle waged against me,
even though many oppose me.
19 God, who is enthroned forever,
will hear them and afflict them—
Selah
men who never change their ways
and have no fear of God.
20 My companion attacks his friends;
he violates his covenant.
21 His speech is smooth as butter,
yet war is in his heart;
his words are more soothing than oil,
yet they are drawn swords.
22 Cast your cares on the LORD
and he will sustain you;
he will never let the righteous fall.
23 But you, O God, will bring down the wicked
into the pit of corruption;
bloodthirsty and deceitful men
will not live out half their days.
But as for me, I trust in you.
