Good morning, come on in out of the cold and grab yourself a cup of coffee. I got a fresh pot over there on the stove and it should be just above ready.”
–Nathan Wright (The Pursuit)
Brrr, it’s cold, an’ I’m afraid it’s gonna get colder. Coffee’s hot though an’ it’ll warm yur innards. Say, Pard, next week is settin’ up to be quite a week. Monday, a new President will take office. Out with the old, liberal, wokeism and hopefully in with some type of genuine, get-down-to-business plan. Let’s see what happens. We have an situation given to us by the good Lord to get back to the foundations–let’s see.
Feel that coffee workin’ its way down into yur core? Ahhh, even in the midst of the storms, we can still share a cup of hot java. Speakin’ of storms, that’s the second thing that’s settin’ up to happen. Supposed to get downright cold here in this part of Texas, well, in fact most all of the state. Predicticatin’ snow. That’ll be all right as long as the electricity doesn’t go out like it did a couple years ago. But we’ll face whatever comes with the Lord by our side.
I remember a few years back when I told someone the cold makes my bones ache. Why she almost threw a conniption fit. She said don’t speak those words. Now, I’ve been ’round long enough to hear hoo-doo and even some voodoo an’ that was what that was. Listen, Pard, the holy Scripture is not hocus pocus. We are to worship in truth, that means reality. We worship no matter the situation, no matter if the bones ache or not. Why that ol’ ‘postle Paul said that he bore the scars on his walk with the Lord. He didn’t testify them away. I saw that lived first-hand in the lives of my Grandma and Aunt Bern.
Sure hopin’ I don’t have to get out. Supposed to see the heart doc on Tuesday, that’s the day it’s supposed to snow. Might have to change my appointment. Not that I can’t drive in snow, but it’s the rest of these fools around here that concern me. Yuh, be havin’ a safe week, stay warm, and if’n yuh have to go out in the cold and weather for land sakes check yur cinch.
Vaya con Dios.
