to respond to her, but in a few moments, I said, “That simply means 
Article Finishing.” Then I smiled one of my gregarious smiles. 

She looked at me and wasn't smiling but giving me one of her “stares.” I
suspected I was in trouble. 

“Are you sure,” she asked, “that it does not mean Apple Fritter?” 

It was such a frustrating week; it was hard for me to bounce back with a
credible answer. “You do know,” she said very seriously, “that you are 
not to have Apple Fritters because of your health?” 

Trying to come up with an answer, I simply said, “I was just thinking
that maybe if I thought a little bit about an Apple Fritter, it would 
make me feel a little bit better about my week.” 

Looking at me, she said, “I think that finishing your tasks during the
week, is what will make you feel better.” 

Later I was reminded of what the Bible says. “His lord said unto him,
Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over 
a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into 
the joy of thy lord” (Matthew 25:21). 

I don't have to do everything, just a few things that I can handle for
the glory of God.
