But I was to be delighted for the second time that day when the
repairman informed me of the nature of the trouble. It seems the 
trouble was on the outside of the building. As everyone knows, that is 
the responsibility of the electric company. 

The problem turned out to be of the varmint kind. A nut-challenged
squirrel had eaten through one of the major electric lines on the 
outside of the building thus cutting off all electricity from going 
inside the building. 

“Here's your problem, Rev,” the repairman said with a big grin smeared
on his face. With that, he held up a nicely fried squirrel.

thought of a verse of Scripture. ''And we know that all things work 
together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called 
according to his purpose.'' (Romans 8:28 KJV). 

Sometimes little things can frustrate us. But no person is defined by
any one day or one incident. These little problems are usually 
temporary and serve only as a reminder that we are not in charge of 
anything at all. 

Does anybody have a recipe for fried squirrel?
