Inventory

Inventory

So the first Monday of the month (today) is the day that the Women’s Center places their inventory order. I looked high, I looked low, and there was no inventory record to be found.

After a few short Q & A sessions I discovered that no inventory record was done. Everyone was simply so busy that there was no time to get the inventory request together. There's just one small problem - without a record of the current inventory, we won’t know what to order – we won’t know what is needed.

I thought about that for a while and realized that in my own life there are times that I need to slow down and take inventory, personal inventory. I need to evaluate: where I am, what I am involved in and what I have stored (hung on to). This will help me to know: where I am going, what I am producing and what I need to get rid of.

Holy Spirit,
Thanks for preaching me straight to my knees! You have a way of using the commonplace things in my life to keep me in line. You’re awesome!


Sincerely,
Liz

When it started up again, I wanted to throw my alarm clock out the window but I knew that I shouldn’t so I got up. “Burr”, I said out loud. The floor was freezing cold on my toes! I tried to feel around for my bunny slippers but found only one of them, so I put on the one that I found and hopped to the bathroom. When I got there I flipped on the light; the light was bright on my tired eyes. I squinted and looked around to see my other slipper sitting by the bathtub. “Oh good,” I thought “now both feet will be warm.” After I put my other slipper on I decided to brush my teeth. Still squinting, I opened the cabinet and felt around for my toothbrush. As I looked through half closed eyes for the tube I thought, “I hope the raspber...
