Take the leap of faith, Indy!

Possibly my favorite part of that movie. I actually used to jump off stuff and pretend I was landing on an invisible bridge...And the times I remember that, I'm eternally grateful I made it through high school.

At any rate, my snake has been sick this week. My fault again...that's an issue with snakes. 90 odd percent of the problems they have are caused by the environment. AKA: The owner. XD With a dog, you can say "Hey. You ate that". With a snake it's like, "Um...sorry man. MAH BAD." -_-

At any rate, there came a point where I was so tired, worried sick, and just plain meh...the only thing I could do was put it in God's hands. But then I hesitated...could I do that? Admit that the only thing I knew to do was pray? Trust in Him to make it right?

I had/have trouble with that. To sum it up, I'll quote one of my favorite books:

"I can objectively, but can I sincerely?"

Oddly, Brennen was in a similar situation. He had to trust God to care for one in his life he loved.

Kind of funny really, to trust God with my salvation from eternal damnation, but wonder if he can take care of a baby snake. Funny in a "that's not funny man," kind of way.

So I tried my hardest to place it in God's hands. And you know what? Baby snake didn't eat his meal. But the next day, I talked to a friend who knows snakes. He said I may have the cage a bit hot, and after I lowered the temp, Baby seemed to be doing better. And he's been getting better since. Not because of me, or my friend, but God.

And once again, I learned that my option is not always God's will. Which is for another post, I think.
