the inflated mattress story...

living here with my cousin i have been sleeping on an inflatable mattress...and if you know anything about these mattress they aren't as comfy as a bed but they take close second and people usually pull them out for guests that stay 8 days not 8 months but yea... ummm this one well the first one deflated and suffocated me basically the second one idk broke before i even used it and the third one....well here is the story

it got a hole in it the week i went away to ship most likely from the little cousin, noah, jumping on it...anywho it got a whole in it and i kept pumping it up and decided that i should just let it deflate because it would be like sleeping on a sleeping bag.

two things about this bed it is to this day not like a sleeping bag and wow...i do not come up with brilliant ideas ever soooo anywho i thought sleeping on a deflated bed would just help me be humble every morning. i have tried not to complain at all about sleep or lack there of and im kinda enfolded as if God were in fact holding me at night it isn't bad at all really but in our world to our world it sucks big time.

and my cousin noah wanted asked if he could sleep in my bed on time recently and i said yes not thinking about the deflation aspect with two people in the bed....but he did sleep in the deflated mattress with me and so well that night.

and i immediately thought about G-O-D. and this whole humbleness/faith as a child. the fact that noah wanted to like really wanted to sleep on the mattress but more so he wanted to sleep next to me and it seriously was really about being near me,,,and this is like God. we need to want to be near to him whether it's and deflated mattress or a hole in the ground...it doesnt matter what "comforts" and pleasures we like to spoil ourselves with it's all about God and being near to Him no matter what the circumstance.

this story is so much more fun in person but let us draw near to God...even on the deflated mattress.
