Ya’ll know I have a problem with, when my head is too full, I just dump out everything, right?  I am having one of those days, in the midst of one of those periods, when I just want everything to stop a dad-gum minute and let me catch my breath and get my bearings.  Vertigo is not fun!

(As our younger son once said as he exited the “fun house” at the fair, “That was NOT a FUN HOUSE!”).

In either case, you need to repent and abhor that which is evil.
