This is my first post like this, but I have seen other bloggers post a scripture verse on Sunday, and I like the idea. So, for my first one, I think I will begin with the verse God has given me as the theme for my blog and more importantly, my life.
…let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
The word perseverance has been a common theme for me of late. Next week, I will share another verse with this same word.
Blessings,
When I think of the hymns I sang as a child, this one is near the top of the list.
And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in.
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin.
I am thankful. I am humbled. I love Him more every day.
Sweet Blessings,
Yesterday, I mentioned there was a part 2 to this story.
My aunt, daughter, and I came back to my aunt’s house whereby I quickly proceeded to inform my uncle I was never driving his truck again because he was a wanted man!
As a side note, the truck had tinted windows, so the highway patrolman could not have seen who was driving until I actually rolled down the window. I only found out from my uncle and father later that this is actually illegal!
As if that wasn’t enough, my uncle then proceeded to tell me that there was a handgun in the glove compartment! A handgun! Have mercy! He is, of course, registered to carry the gun, but I, THE ONE DRIVING THE TRUCK, however, am not! He didn’t recall that it was in there until after we had already left.
Apparently, and I didn’t know this either until that day, if you are carrying a concealed weapon in your vehicle and are pulled over by your friendly neighborhood law enforcement officers, you are supposed to put your hands on the steering wheel and let said law enforcement know that you have said weapon. Heaven help me!
All I can say is, “Thank the Good Lord he wasn’t looking for me!”
And as for those pictures, I know you’re beginning to wonder if they truly exist. I said yesterday I would try to post some today. Well, I’m afraid I still haven’t gotten them downloaded to my computer. And because I know you’re starting to doubt my word on this, I’m not going to say when they may or may not be here. One day you’ll visit and be pleasantly surprised that they have appeared. 
Blessings,
