Jesus loves me, this I know.

Today, I had an hour and a half lunch break, which is always nice if I have to run errands. I needed to go to the bank (at Cherrydale), so I took my time, enjoyed (immensely!) my drive down Hwy. 25 (the leaves are incredible!). After I went to the bank, I stopped back by Wal-Mart, where I first bought the new Switchfoot album “The Best Yet.” (Spectacular!)

Basically, all that to say that the day was just really GOOD to start off with. But as I was walking through Wal-Mart, grinning like a silly person while clutching my new CD/DVD combo, I realized my blood sugar was low. I’d been a little shaky earlier this morning, so I wasn’t surprised. So I headed to Subway for my customary salad and potato chips.

But today was also Free Cookie Day, which I totally took advantage of. And when I checked my blood sugar, after eating lunch, it was only 66. So I ate the entire cookie. Chocolate chip. My first real cookie this year. And it was divine. I have never tasted something so delicious, I’m pretty sure. I also believe it was preordained that I should get low blood sugar on Free Cookie Day.

And that is the story of how I know Jesus loves me, and how a chocolate chip cookie saved my life.
