Welcome to the Dessert Bar, special devos that Peggie will write on occasion, in addition to the 500-plus devotionals archived at the Devotional Buffet. "O taste and see that the Lord is good (Psalm 34:8)." Let's feast on the richness of His Word--it's a banquet fit for a king, and you're a King's Kid--so come on in and enjoy!
You smile and relate--for unless you're some kind of neat freak, you've got little people coming and going under YOUR bed, dresser, sofa and TV too, just like me! Now DUST wouldn't normally have a devastating effect on me--I can live with a little, and so can you!! But when your allergy doctor sticks your back with food, chemicals, grasses, weeds--AND dust--and you come up DUST, you sit up, say, "Please let me scratch," and listen a little more closely!
Now I exaggerate a little 'cause my case is not a bad one, but I'm learning a lot! You see, these DUST MITES--the little critters you can only see with a microscope--actually feast off our dead skin cells--in bedding, drapes, carpeting, stuffed animals--in MY house and yours. Frankly, I could certainly think of far better things to eat--yuk! In any event, they are mighty little things that can cost you money--and bring a little bit of madness along the way as you rush for the allergy pills, the nose sprays, the dust-busters and the catalogs with allergy-free comforters! Little microscopic monsters that will mess up your sinus cavities, your throat, your ears, your breathing, your voice, your head--and your life--if you let them!
Can't help but remind me of some other "mighty mites" that march down the street and mess up our lives and homes--mighty mad mites of sins, stress, sadness, sickness......one little mite on top of another, until we are a bag of nerves, running for cover...DON'T - for that's where the mad mighty mites reside--IN THE COVERS--grin--go read the books! And now, get out the Good Book, read a Psalm; put on a praise-and-worship tape; calm down; find something funny in the whole little mess--and see how the mighty mad little mites will march right out of your home and life--as the Might of God's power and Spirit put them to flight!
Don't let the little stresses and messes of life BUG you. After all, in the light of eternity, how BIG are those little mites after all....not VERY....especially in view of the great big God we serve. So after you're all done washing your bedding, your blankets, your drapes, your carpets, don't forget to wash YOURSELF in the Water of God's Word.....let the mites, the bites, the fights, the blights--whatever the devil is magnifying in YOUR life, be gone as His cleansing Word fills your heart and life.
March on, little mites....you're not wanted here, there or anywhere where God's children are serving the Lord. We stand together against the "little mites" that mess up our lives. We gladly watch them MARCH OUT at the mention of HIS Name--and we move on to breathe deeply the fragrance of His love and His marvelous joy in our lives!
Now believe it--strike up the band and watch the little mites march right out of your life--in the Name of the Lord!
...and that's just a little "food for thought" from my heart to yours!
A Prayer:
"Lord, the mites have come marching into my life this week, and I need Your help. Let me now be so overwhelmed by the pressures and problems of this life, little and big, that I forget who's in charge. You are in control, Lord, and it's going to be all right. Help me to DEAL with the dastardly little critters--to repent, to regroup, and to recover as YOU restore to me the Joy and Peace of the Lord once again, In Jesus' Name, Amen."

"Mom," asked the little boy, "Didn't you say we came from dust and someday we will all return to dust?" Mom smiled, "Why, yes, Son. I did. What makes you ask?"
"Well," the little tyke continued, "there's a lot of people under my bed right now--and I just wanted to know if they were coming or going!"
