Root Canal...ouch!

Today I had a root canal, to make it worse it was on a tooth I have already had one done on. There was a little tiny area that got missed when I had the first one 2 years ago. Thankfully there was no charge today, I guess that's one positive!

When I was laying back in the chair, my mind wondered from random topics such as did I turn off my curling iron, how the kids day was going, what's for dinner tonight...you get the point. Oh, I did also say a little prayer for Autumn today she had to give a presentation today and I know she gets extremely nervous! It's so odd though she can be in a play at school or church and no nerves, but have her stand up in front of peers and just be A, it's hard for her to do. I think she is so worried what they think about her (which in my opinion she is one of the most thoughtful, compassionate, beautiful people I know) I just wish she saw herself that way too.

So back to my root canal, I'm sorry but I have to go back! As he was cleaning out the yuck in my tooth it had this terrible smell. Who would have thought that a little infection could smell so bad! Again my mind went back to comparing it to my heart, you think that it's all cleaned out, and over time stuff can begin to fester, and become rotten (even when we think it's just a little thing, it's infects ever thing it comes in contact with) I even catch myself watching something on the t.v. and I get this little nudge from the Holy Spirit that I sometimes think, oh not a big deal! But boy am I wrong!! Just something so tiny (in my eyes, not the Holy Spirits) as a commercial can plant things that just don't need to be there.
