You ever thought about who you have riding in your car? I’m not talking about Regina or Susie but those things you don’t see like joy and thanksgiving? I want you to think deeply with me as I reflect on my Sabbath. I pray it helps you and gives you food for thought.
So next time you get in the car check your rear view mirrors, gas, and pump the brakes if you have to. Make sure to check your glove compartment and trunk. And remember stranger danger! Join me tomorrow and few the whole story under the Daily Devotional tab. Drop a comment below and share with a friend.
When you commented stranger danger, that reminded me of that time when we got off the school bus and that van stopped directly behind us. You took off running and me standing there, being like one of those people in the movies who always are dumb and go and get killed. I mean now looking back, I should have took off running too; but like I said I was curious like one of those crazy killed to soon 2 minute actress, and I’m just looking at the all black van with tented windows looking like who is that??? The Faith now is like RUN FAITH RUN!! The younger kind slow and inquisitive Faith is like I wonder who that is… and then when the door slides open…..I MEAN COME ON FAITH. That means RUN RUN RUN, they are about to snatch you, cut you up into million of pieces and eat you and feed the rest to their dogs….But looking back now at the situation, the only reason they drove off is because you took off running again. I want to personally say THANK YOU PIG NOSE because maybe I needed some medication back then….well I think I need some now LOL…but really I don’t know if I was just stuck on STUPID….or just plain slow…Like STRANGER DANGER ALERT!!! BIG BLACK VAN WITH ALL TENTED WINDOWS AND YOU CANT SEE IN. SO YOU SAVED MY LIFE AND I THANK YOU. NOW I CAN WRITE ABOUT IT. LOL WELL NOT LOL. OH WELL LOL. I’m Still here and it’s because of God’s Grace and Mercy and all because who was walking along side with me, my big HOMIE! And then my Big Homie took off running! LOL. Love you Pig Nose.
I love you too. Oh I am over here reminiscing on that day and I specifically remembered yelling your name and you wouldn’t move. My attitude is I love you but I’m not ready to die so if you don’t come I’m leaving and my short legs ran the fasted I think I have ever run. To think about it I was not a good friend because I don’t think I looked back until I was in the yard.
Poor horse nose would have gotten beat up, chopped up, and fed to the dogs all because you were curious. You know what they say: curiosity killed the cat.
I’m so happy nothing happened you or myself that day. God protected us back then the same way He currently is a hedge of protection over our life. I’m sure he sees all my dumb moments and says I might need medication too.
Yes we can laugh about it now but I was scared out of my mind that day. All I could think of is these grown men looking at us, stopped and looked at us and when the door opened I said RUN NEGRO RUN!!! Now what if my knee was messed up back then like it is now, guess I would have been Dog Chow.
I love you and you don’t have to thank me for leaving you when you wouldn’t run; let’s just thank God for protecting us and giving us this beautiful friendship since 1st grade. Wow!!!!
