Mouse!
Hello everyone! Hope everyone's having a good summer!
I'm enjoying summer that is for sure! I am a summer girl not a winter girl ;) Though I do enjoy blizzards, but only once in awhile ;)
Summer is going wayyyy to quickly for me! It's like I blinked and it's almost August now! Yikes! It feels like I just got done with school and here it is creeping up on me again! :P
Well, I have a little story to tell you all this bright afternoon.
Okay, here we go.
"Once upon there was a girl who was enjoying her morning on the couch in the living room. She was still waking up from her sleep and was enjoying relaxing on the comfy couch.
Suddenly, she saw something run across the floor.
Her mind screamed 'MOUSE!!!' as her eyes met the fury little black-eyed mouse.
Not knowing what to do as she watched the little creature run around the living room she called her brother who was at work. He explained to her that she should grab a bucket and put it over top of the tiny mouse. Then slip cardboard under the bucket to keep the mouse in side until she took the mouse outside and put it in a large bucket to wait for her brother to come home,
Shaking like a leaf, she got a bucket and charged back to the living room.
Still in her P.J's she ran around the living room CHASING the small mouse with a bucket in the hand and her brother on the phone in the other hand.
What a creature! How bold the little gray mouse was to stroll into plain sight in the living room!
"Gotcha!" she said in relief as the bucket was put over top the mouse finally after about two minutes of chasing.
Getting a big piece of cardboard she slipped it under the bucket to take 'Mr.Fancy-Pants' outside.
Her heart beating quickly she gently took the bucket, cardboard and mouse outside and without touching the fuzzy creature she got the mouse into a bigger bucket to wait for her brother.
After doing all this, the girl went back inside and sat down with a sigh of relief. As she sat there she noticed what she just had done! You don't get to chase a mouse everyday! A mouse you're afraid of, at that.
Then she thought about the book she had been reading. 'In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day.' It was about chasing the 'lions' (your fears) in life instead of running from them!
"Wow!I just did that! I literally just chased my fear! Yeah, a mouse. But I chased it instead of running from it!" the girl thought as she smiled to herself.'Soon, I'll be chasing lions! Ha! I wonder when my next 'lion' or should I say 'mouse' will come for me to chase instead of fall back in fear."
That day the girl noticed how important it is to chase your fears instead of run from them. Chasing your fears might not seriously be chasing a mouse or lion, but it is chasing the fear of whatever it is that is keeping you in bondage. It could be a fear of guilt, a fear of doubt, it could be a fear of someone or something. Whatever it might be, remember, don't let it control you. Don't run from it! Chase it! Show it you are not afraid and you have courage to chase it! You will surprise the devil when you don't bow down to his bondage he keeps putting you in and controlling you in. Living for God means chasing the fears, not running for them.
So, go chase those 'lions!' in life!"
THE END.
So, what do ya think of my sweet story?! Isn't it just sooo random about a girl who chased a mouse in her house?! Yeah, I know you must be thinking that.
Well, let me turn on the light on this story. You want to know how I came up with such a story?! I'll tell you.
That girl who chased a mouse around her living room was me. Yep, I chased a little gray mouse around my living room just the other day! Surprised? I took myself my surprise! I can't see myself running around with a bucket chasing a mouse! That just doesn't sound like me! Well, I did though! And that is my latest story of the day! Ha!
Hope you are having a good day!
God bless!
