Inspired by Cotton!

A friend of mine (we will call him "Cotton") who I admire a great deal, sent me an email this weekend in regards to my post last week about "Donde Esta la Support Cards" I must admit he and I have had some interesting discussions about church, manhood, Home Alone (the movie and an inside joke), and life in general. He is an awesome guy and always seems to have a way to put things into perspective that make you sit back and say Hmmmm.......

With his email he did just that.... As I do about every post on here, especially since someone said they were offensive at times, I thought long and hard about what I was going to say in regards to the support cards.... I know how people get when you challenge them about money...especially those with a lot of it...That's why those people have a lot sometimes, because they hold on to it so tightly (no I am not trying to take away from those who work hard and earn things...save the complaints)....anyway..... I asked "Cotton" if he thought the post was too straight forward and this was his response......


Sometimes you gotta push some church folk - ie,
have them swallowed by a whale,
have a worm kill the tree they're resting under,
burn a bush,
flood the world,
turn them into a pillar of salt, etc..


Didn't you just say Hmmmm..... I could hear it all the way in Boiling Springs!!! God does indeed have a straightforwardness about Him huh???


I know, I know, I am by no means God, but I think if He communicates to us that way and He created the entire universe, how much more straight forward does little 'ole me need to be......


The funny thing about all His straightforwardness..... most people still didn't believe Him!!! That said.....SEND IN YOUR CARDS!!! Have a great Monday!!!
