WHO FARRED THA-UT SHOT? - for JUST A MINUTE Radio on Wednesday 110420

Howdy in the middle of this week…

 

Seems like time is just a-whirrlin’ – as they say over on the Caroliner line --  And we’re smack-dab in the middle of another week (and half the work from last week is still waiting in the IN BASKET!

 

At least we have had some decent Spring-like weather while those as close as Alabama (NW corner) and other points out west a-ways have had a drubbing.

 

North Carolina took a major blow with something like 60 Tornadoes counted early – and I didn’t get the count from Tuesday before having to commit this to the Internet. What seems to be plain is – much more attention is getting to the public about Spring storms this year than before. Possibly it’s due to the increased presence of cell-phones with vidiography… and the ability to pass along many in-the-field shots that were just not utilized before.

 

Then I heard a summary of debt in the world…and the correspondent/reporter was saying no country has as much debt as we do (especially the debt mounted up since our current President took office) except for Japan where destruction and loss of life have been catastrophic. It at least give one something to think about when you wake during the night and can’t get back to sleep.

 

It’s not particularly that I’m *worried* about things. In fact in the last 20-30 years I believe I’ve worried (or fretted as some like to say) less about *things* -- health, wealth (or lack of it) illness or whatever else tends to keep one awake during the early morning hours than I did in my early years --  and in the ‘roughly’ first part of my life [since I really don’t know how to measure exactly what the last part of my life might consist of] – and quite contentedly feel, not that I know a LOT more than I knew.  But I can certainly say with confidence I have a lot more experience in which God has proven Himself so kind, gentle and forgiving – so *caring* as it’s come to be seen through more experiences -- and a greater familiarity with God’s word through reading and the Holy Spirit illuminating the knowledge God showers upon me through friends and neighbors – and hearing the Word of the Lord expounded.

 

Well as the night goes on while I’m writing – the run on sentences tend to occur more often and signal it *is* time to close it off and put it to bed. I tried getting done earlier this evening… and no matter how I ‘buckled down’ the night got shorter and shorter and the stuff I needed to get done just piled up more.  So… I give up… now I’m headed for the sack. 

 

I wish you all a good night’s sleep and rest and most of all JOY IN THE LORD – because it is available to all those who know and trust in HIM.

 

Thanks for sharing with me and being my friend.

 

Cordially, IN HIM

 

Jack
