Feeling Cruddy

by PamFord Davis  
1/03/2024 / Devotionals

It spreads faster than the latest piece of juicy gossip; shows up uninvited and hangs around longer than you can patiently endure. Doctors offer little encouragement; family tries to make you comfortable and best friends keep you at arm's length.

You have the crud.

Doctors diagnose you with a viral condition. You choose the more popular designation of crud; settle in for the long haul and try your best to keep a positive attitude. When feeling cruddy; tissues, cough drops and mom's chicken noodle soup become your arsenal.

Take aim!

To fight the battle we must first know the enemy. ‘Britannica World Language Edition of Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dictionary’ defines crud this way: ‘Slang, Worthless rubbish.’

In my opinion, crud serves no beneficial purpose. Yet, it can sharpen spiritual warfare skills. Cheerfulness is a little used weapon…

People may wonder what you’re up to but you have found a remedy for crud.

“Rejoice always and delight in your faith; be unceasing and persistent in prayer; in every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be thankful and continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 AMP Bible).”
