Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy, Lord have mercy. Thank you for the wisdom and grace to endure being vomited on (face, hair, shoulders) as I carry little V up the stairs. It was totally gruesom and if it were not for the grace of love I would have crawled out of my skin and went screaming down the street in utter horror! Thank you for a husband who is fanatic about cleaning and able to Take care of us when we are covered head to toe in vomit scared and weary. As I lay wake, exhausted, and yearning for sleep I remember he many who are also suffering from vomit … From a distant relative who is hospitalized due to a stomach virus, and his mother who has breast cancer and all those who are vomiting due to cancer medicine’s, to those who vomit due to too much alcohal and narcottics, to those who do not have clean water and vomit, to those with eatting disorders … I ponder, was God a pucker? Did he vomit a lot as a child, and man. He did say that “Luke warm christains were his vomit”. … And there probably are many Luke warm christains (probably including me sometimes … So sorry God) so, can I imply that Jesus vomited a lot!!! I guess it doesn’t matter except to maybe give me peace because our children are phenomenal vomiters, and it still grosses me out major. However, God has blessed us with graces and we pray that these episodes remain short and help build our childrens immune e systems so that they may grow up to serve our God. Amen
