"Toothache"
Okay, so I've been thinking about something the pastor of a church I once frequented used to say. I thought it was an accurate yet ironic concept the first time I heard him say it. I believe it goes something like this ... ‘May God irritate you until you have the desire to change your circumstances'. Interesting, right? Think about it ... how many times have you taken inventory of your life only to realize that there are various facets that agitate you to no end yet you continue to tolerate them? Inspiration for change comes in many disguises. Unfortunately, many of us have developed an extremely high tolerance for irritation and dysfunction. My Grandmother often says to me "baby, my hip is hurtin' me like a toothache". That saying took on a whole new perspective after I actually experienced my first toothache. One thing is for certain; I was on the phone with my dentist's office that same day scheduling an appointment to remove that agitating tooth. So for those of you who can't find the necessary inspiration to alter your agitating circumstances; May God provide your situation with a toothache that you can no longer ignore. Be blessed.
