The Triple Threat

Last week was one of those tough weeks that I’ll remember for awhile. Saturday, April 12th was when it all started.

THREAT ONE. On my way home from Blockbuster, I got pulled over on Lincolnway for running a red light. I didn’t run it terribly, but I was definitely deserving of the ticket that I received.

THREAT TWO. On Tuesday, I was playing some basketball with some kids at the park. I went up for a rebound, came down, and sprained my ankle.

THREAT THREE. After hobbling around on crutches for a couple days, by the grace (and healing) of God I was able to put enough pressure on it to fly a much anticipated flight to Steamboat Springs, CO on Friday. Sounds like a pretty decent ending to a rough few days, right? Well, Saturday morning I got a call from the Steamboat Springs Police Department saying that someone had turned in my wallet and I was welcome to pick it up anytime. (I felt sick to stomach) Since it’s a 3 hr drive one way, I opted for them mailing it to me at their convenience. (little did I know that, once Monday rolled around, life would get complicated without my military id, my drivers license, credit cards, cash, etc.) What a week!

Hallelujah anyhow! Like the video clip on Sunday said… if my week is good, I’ll praise Him; if it’s bad, I’ll praise Him… for He deserves the praise.
