About to go North East up in hurrrrr: Episode 124,894,849

Having such a large family (I'd have it NO other way), requires lots of planning and organization. I don't know what it's like to make a 'quick' run into a store to grab 'a few things' My shopping trips include spreadsheets, charts and now COUPONS!!!


     



it's a  6 to 8 hour marathon (CIRCUS).




How I wish I could have a one stop shop for all of our needs! My weekly trips include: Sams, Aldi, Price Chopper, Target or Walmart!



The MOMENT I can get my hands on another fridge - I shall take on stocking up for 2 weeks at a time!!!


It NEVER FAILS!!      N E V E R!!!! - that I run into some kind of dramatic episode during one of my FOUR weekly trips! Not long ago while at Aldi's in line WITH A CART FULL of items, the customer behind me begins to unload her groceries on top of mine!!!!! WHAT THE WHAT???

She was from another country....they may roll like that where she's from, BUT STILL, this is NOT an open market like that lady! - we have this thing called 'common sense' & 'social norms' Please consult your immigration office to learn more about our customs please BEFORE you try to grocery shop - thank you!

Thankfully it didn't end like this:


However, after I removed her bread  AND  many other items from MY PILE!!!(how I love to squeeze bread side note), she lost her mind with me!!!!!! and for real, I was in fear she was going to attack me!!!! She kept Shouting " DON'T TOUCH MY BREAD... NO TOUCHIE MY BREAD" !!!! She moves closer to me - and I for real think 'it's about to go dowwwwwwn"



What would Jesus do in this situation? Would He have wanted to squeeze the life out of her bread as I did  thought of doing?











Nope, I think not! He would have broken it with her and prayed for (casted the legions that possessed out), her I'd imagine. I'm no where near mastering the *fruits of spirit* - are you!? Most (every day), and lots of situations I face, I have to say to myself:


 "Girl, please don't go North East up in hurrr"

The issue was resolved soon after the clerk informed her that she would be banned and removed from the store AGAIN!!! HAAA (She is a repeat offender I was informed) and apparently has not learned her lesson

Galatians 5:22-23 (New International Version)

 ²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Father in Heaven, please help me continue to grow with these gifts! Forgive me for *maybe* removing her bread in a way that 'may' have been rough  

And not this:
