| Ecclesiastes 8:9 All this I have seen, and applied my heart to every work that is done under the sun : There is time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.
We live in serious straight forward world. busy, busy busy. Solomon acknowledgs that often times in life we are faced with circumstances beyond our control. In those moments , we should take comfort in God's providence, knowing that " ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD THOSE WHO LOVE GOD, TO THOSE WHO ARE THE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE. Romans 8:28
We have people that are short tempered, hurried, and our reaction to them is the same. There are times for us to respond with Bless You. see the reaction on their face. It takes them by surprise, and some it softens their heart with a smile. We aren't promised all things are good; rather that all things wil work together for good in the end. Give thanks today for Gods goodness inspite of any negative circumstances and maybe even laugh!
I haven't laughed and giggle inside for a long time. My sister Donna and I got into my Dads old truck he drives around the place only can't see throught the dirty windshield LOL we went to haul trash to dumpster, dad drives around 5 -10 miles per hr. I got up to 20 and Donna started saying I'm telling Dad you were hotroding his truck, we both started laughing so hard we had tears in our eyes. IT FELT GOOD! after I was able to talk , I told her glad she was with me incase we broke down she could push us back home. AGAIN a GOOD LAUGH. been a long time coming. Had a smile in my heart the rest of the day. TIMES LIKE THESE ARE MEMORIES. not all things that are wrong, and depressing but times with laughter, giggle sharing with family, friends, strangers. MAY TODAY YOU HAVE A GOOD LAUGH, ONE THAT BRINGS TEARS TO YOUR EYES. WITH A SMILE IN YOUR HEART. ITS TIME!!!
FOR IT IS WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.
HAVE A VERY BLESSED GIGGLY DAY!!

Location: SE Louisiana | OH!!!! it's not very often I have something to say on one of your posts.... But I came to the internet today to tell people about something TERRIBLE I did yesterday... First of all.... I was sleeping in my truck (as I do every day) and....and... and.. I woke up to someone saying "HEY MAN"!!! I raised up my head and looked around.... and standing there just outside the driver's side window of my truck was a cop...
Now.......... I know these people are there to protect us....... and I know I should not have done what I did... but it was Payback time!!! Sometimes you just can't resist doing something... THIS was one of those times for me.... When he woke me up I was in the middle of a book I was writing (a short story I shall name "All For The Love Of A Dog")
But....
But... anyway.....
One of the things I love to do most, is make people laugh... So.... unlike what I did to those 2 cops... I will show you a picture of what Deputy Dozer looks like...
Now...after I saw him standing there.... I started looking around for the other one... (because I know these fellas come in pairs).. and sure enough.... right in front of my truck was his 'backup"... Now.... just back on Thanksgiving Day these two had been in the group of 5 cops that had corralled me behind the shopping center. But that's another story.
Did you ever have that instance happen when you wanted to tug on someone's chain? Well... I'm not known for that... But...But........ I was annoyed...
and.... and I was pretty sure I saw part of the link of a chain that just NEEDED to be pulled.... So I did...But.. I had to wait for it.... Now...I have encountered these guys before... and as cops go... Sheriff Jerry Larpender has put together a super good crew of professional deputies.
So.... I knew when they were done talking to me... they would ask The Question.... "Is there anything we can do for you?".... they Always ask this before leaving........ So I was ready for it.... I said... "Yes... I would like to be introduced to one of the deputies"..... and he said "sure!! What's his name?" and I said "Dozer"... Now remember this chain??? I had just given it a tiny tug... and it started to flow out of it's container. I could see them trying to think of who I was talking about.... So... I tugged on the chain again.... I said.... "He's a German fella"... and... they both got blank looks on their faces..... So..... I just HAD to tug the chain one more time... I said... "he's pretty easy to spot... He comes to work wearing a fur coat every day"....
At hearing this they both started shaking their heads.. Nope, they didn't know who I was talking about.... So I let them of the hook.... when I said.. "He's your bomb dog....." "OH!!! DOZER!!!!" he said as they both started laughing... So.... I had accomplished my goal of making someone laugh that day... and I got the promise that when he got back into town.. ( they are away somewhere for some training) I would indeed get an introduction.
