"Though Satan Should Buffet"

Please excuse the ambiguity of this post. There's no reason for the lack of details other than I don't feel like typing it all out. And also let me preface this by saying that I'm really tired and I know that will add an emotional element that shouldn't necessarily be there. Let me also say I'm worn down and still haven't recovered from doubles last weekend and I'm much more than worn from my new boss feeling the need to yell too often. That said, you'll understand that this post is a culmination of many things going on in my life that have succeeded in getting me down, but I know it will pass.

I'm pretty sure I should have learned this by now, but every time life seems to be on the peaceful side of things a curve ball will inevitably follow leaving you blindsided, bruised and still not knowing what hit you. There really should be some sort of scientificy term for it. Murphy's law? Maybe.

My heart hurts and there's so much about people that I don't understand. How can someone call themselves a Christian and so often think of no one but themselves? How can someone who's lived twice my lifetime not understand that every decision you make will effect all those around you and especially those who love you the most?

Sometimes people create such sad situations and are in need of so much prayer. I know that it's never "too late" because God is always in control, but I also know that some decisions are well, irrecoverable.

Thought Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blessed assurance control
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate
And has shed His own blood for my soul.
