10/16/2020 Delaying Tactic

 

    My pickup truck's  bed is in need of replacement.  Having sustained multiple hits and rust damage. Last year, I needed some extra money.  I was in this nursery yard's loading section, getting a load of mulch.  The operator of the big pay loader was getting ready to dump the mulch into my bed. When all of a sudden it lurched forward and smashed into the side of my truck. It then rolled back 5 ft and again it lurched forward and hit the truck in the same spot.  The truck sustained a mega ding in  it. The truck's bed was stoved in 6 inches over a 3 ft area. The owner  of the garden place comes out. I tell him how about a thousand. He shakes his head no. 500 he says. How about 750 then. 500 says he. 600 says I. 500 says him. 501 says I.  Deal says him. I walked out with 501 cash. The extra money I was looking for. Thank-you  spirit!

    A couple weeks ago, my truck broke down for 2nd time in a week. First time it was the battery, 2nd time it turned out to be the alternator ( the doohickey that charges the battery while driving). The truck broke down 2 miles near my house at a service station. Spirit delayed my breakdown from earlier in the day when I would have been further away from my house and costing me more money for a tow.

    I was going to buy this house with all its contents. I went to the house to make the down payment but the day before it rained hard. When I got to the house all looked good. I decided to look in the crawl space where last week it was bone dry today the water was up to the floor joists. The deal is off says I. Thanks spirit for the fortuitous  thunder storms!

    When you are delayed for some reason, you are in a new time zone. Just proceed forth without being in too much of a hurry in trying  to make up for the lost  time. Try to focus where you're  at. One day my father was getting ready to Move, he had a lot on his mind and wound  up getting in a fender bender at the bank.

   In making big decisions wait at least 3 days before making a decision.  Use other people suggestions, your own dreams and your own research. Then ma k e  the decision.  If you want things to change.it is you that starts the ball rolling. 

10/03/2020 Democracy

 

    Democracy is a precious gift that we here in the US have given ourselves.  It didn't  come cheap. Many sacrifices were born by many colonists.  They defeated the number one military power in the world. It only happened because of God lending his hand behind the scenes help. George Washington was trapped on Long Island NY in 1775. Situation was dire for the colonists. The lit candle  was about  to be snuffed. Then out of nowhere a dense fog enveloped the area. Washington with the help of Massachusetts  sailors was able to escape using fires placed many feet apart to make the Brits think that he was still there and big row boats to ferry his soldiers to Manhattan.  God brought the fog at the right time and place. Another  situation developed  in Pennsylvania when George Washington  was out conversing with 2 other officers early  in the morning.  Unbeknownst  to George a British sharpshooter had him in his sights, he didn't  know it was George. He had his finger on the trigger, but he couldn't  pull it. He said he couldn't  shoot because he felt that it wasn't right to take someone   down when they were no threat. Just  maybe  it was God speaking to him  (the British soldier)  very softly in the morning  light. George would also have musket balls tear through his cloak throughout the war, never sustaining a major wound. God was on his side. George was part of God's master plan for the human race. Which is still unfolding to this very day. Today democracy hangs in the balance. What will you do to keep the light of democracy  burning. Democracy  is about empathy  for ones fellow citizen.  Look out for your self and once in awhile look after the ones who don't  have it as good as you.

    I like this sentiment a rising tide raises all boats.

10/01/2020 Contagion

 

    Covid 19 and now the start of the flu season. Plus indirect effects from the contagion could possibly see 1 million American  deaths by the Spring of 2021.  Get your flu shot now and listen to the scientists and doctors. Also ask spirit for it's help.

God help us.  Which I believe  God does.
