Friday I have 2 things for you to ponder.

Well Friday is here. This week has been very busy for us. It started in full force. Sunday morning was Homecoming and fellowship dinner. Sunday night I preached at a revival with a meal as well. Monday my wife works I am home with the little ones and then revival again. Tuesday I work all day and then classes at night until 10:00PM. Wednesday Buffy my sugar momma works again and then revival (last night). Thursday night at our church is visitation night, but we had a back to school blast at Micahs school.

Then tonight ole TREVOR my long lost 3 brother has a B-day party. I truly feel for him and wish I could give him lots of money to pay for the future medications he will need for his nerve pills. He is dating Nisha who has been mentioned in previous articles.

I think Saturday is free. But the way this week has gone. Who knows???

That was the first thing to ponder....

Second thing we will call the 70MPH Spider. Today I get in the car and to the typical roll down and up the windows that many of us without garages do. This has a 2 fold purpose. First it removes the dew from your windows. Second it also removes the dirt caked on by yesterday.

Well I peer out on my right side and notice a spider. The semi-scary arachnid has made a web from my side mirror to my window. I roll up the window and proceed to take my son to school. Well I think he will fall off almost immediately. No !!!! He rolls up into a ball and clings for dear life on his web of steel. I drive about 45 down our road. He never falls off. I get on 121 and get up to a cruising speed of 60mph. He is still there. I drive halfway to Murray and decide to test how much this spider can take. I hit 70 MPH and he never falters. I then decrease speed and he stays. Just as we get to the fair grounds he met his demise. A 18 Wheel monster driving the opposite direction comes our way. I am doing about 60MPH and lets just say the other vehicle is doing the same. So I am figuring this spider will be my new pet if he can handle a wind gust of over 120 mph. It is a no go. Poor thing didn't even see it coming. I left the spider at the fair grounds but I have a feeling he is still alive. BTW I have a new appreciation for the truck drivers now. Go get em guys!!

You ever realized how we cling to the world and all it has to offer us like that spider? We hold on for dear life like a child that is going to the doctor to get a shot. It is our world ...We like it...We don't want to surrender control to God. But Oh if you ever do you will realize how futile the fight was and how wonderful it is to let Christ be our Lord.
