Friday,we were wrong,my new care worker calls today

Good morning journal,the time is now 4:44am,I have been awake since 3:50am when two of our fur children woke me to go outside. After they were finished,Buttons crawled in beside her human mother while Caesar refused to settle so I took him with me through to our lounge,made some coffee,and decided to come here,as I type,Caesar has finally curled up on our sofa,making sure of course that I am within his line of sight all the time,he watches me like an over protective body guard,and he takes his job very seriously indeed. If I move,he moves,it's just his way,but I feel safer somehow when the big guy is around,even though there is nothing in our home to be scared of,it's a good feeling to know he's got my back. Yesterday was somewhat of an anti climax in a way,we mistakenly thought my new care worker was supposed to call in the afternoon,we were wrong,we found the slip of paper on my table that said Friday January 10th 2:30pm,.....oops,we made a booboo. Before we found it,my wife had been rushing around like a tornado,vacuuming,dusting,and generally making the old house ready for a visit from royalty,women are like that,the place could be gleaming like a new pin but they will find some speck of dust somewhere and then it becomes a full scale major overhaul and clean,I've never understood that,but then I'm just a man,I'm not supposed to I guess. We did however receive a telephone call in the afternoon from the disability people,for a split second,I thought that they had reached a decision and my hopes soared,only to be brought crashing back to earth when I  discovered it was only a survey to find out our feelings about our treatment by them,up to and including the face to face assessment we had on January 2nd,because I'm deaf,I handed the telephone to my wife and decided to let her run with the ball so to speak,.....and boy did she do that!. She was polite as she always is,but her answers left the person on the other end of the telephone in no doubt that if we hadn't called them to complain that we had been waiting since July 2013 for an appointment,we would probably still be waiting,and her answers ranged from dissatisfied to very dissatisfied,with a couple of satisfied and one very satisfied before she brought the call to an end,not all doom and gloom then I thought as she ruffled my hair as she passed my chair with a very satisfied smile on her face,go wife,that's my girl. As has become my way,I spent a lot of time reading scripture yesterday,and it occurred to me that you hear people using expressions like,"oh my God",or,"oh for God's sake",or even,"Jesus Christ",in their everyday language,I've even heard people who I know are self confessed atheists do it,I've never understood that,if you don't believe in God,why would you use His name to express yourself?. Most people,even some believers,use the terms I have just mentioned,it's wrong,they say,"oh my God!",when they hear something shocking or surprising,using God's name like this offends Him,it tells us in His word that it does,we should only use His name when we are speaking to Him or listening for His answers to us,we should use His name with reverence and a righteous fear,He is our parent,and He should be treated with respect and obedience,I used to do it myself without thinking,until God told me that He didn't like it,so today,I only use His name when I speak to Him directly,or through Jeremiah,Ruth and Micah when they speak to me. As a parent myself,if I had to go away,as I often did for my work,I used to leave my children a set of instructions,a list of do's and don'ts,and they knew how I expected them to behave until I returned,the bible is exactly like that,in it,we find a set of instructions on how to live,what's right and acceptable in the eyes of God,what pleases Him and what doesn't,He loves us,we are His children,so the bible for me is a letter from my Father telling me how He expects me to behave until He returns for me,it's that simple. Well journal,again I grow tired,it's time to retire to my trusty old armchair and go through my morning prayers,I enjoy this time with God,it's very special to me,and I can feel Jeremiah,Ruth and Micah growing impatient with me,they need to talk and I need to listen,so until the next time,please Lord,guide our steps today,let us tread the path You have laid down for us once again as we walk through yet another day together,in the name of Your Most Holy Son Jesus Christ,.....Amen.
