We let the coffee pot sit on a little nest of hot coals until they gave up their heat. Then we drank warm coffee till it was gone… ‘Thou shalt not waste coffee.’”
–Lou Bradshaw (Texas War Lord)
Ahhh, good coffee this mornin’, Pard. Sorry I didn’t wait for yuh, but I wanted a cup. My mercy, the ‘landest things that were said and done this week. I don’t have the time, space, or effort to elaborate on them all. All I know is that we’re headin’ towards the abyss. Lawlessness and stupidity are tryin’ to gain supremacy. I don’t remember where I read this, but this little prayer fits, “Strengthen our hearts to stand firm when culture tells us to bow down, remembering that ‘the grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.'” If’n I’m thinkin’ right it came from Chad Prather.
I won’t go into the shootin’ or the wokism that provoked Cracker Barrel. There’s been enough said ’bout them. But I will say that some of them dummy liberals have no clue the power of prayer. Here’s one of the dumbest things–the mayor of Chicago says that to crack down on crime will bring more about. He said there will be riots. ??? Now I have to ponder that. Why in the world would anyone riot if crime was reduced? Seems to me the onliest ones that should be riotin’ would be the criminals.
Then there was this person who said that we shouldn’t have to work. No, an’ yuh shouldn’t have to eat. Ol’ Brother Paul made that clear, “If a man will not work, he shall not eat.” It don’t matter the gender, yuh need to work. Work is satisfyin’. Work is rewardin’. Work builds character. Work separates the riff-raff from the top hand. Work put beans on the table. Work puts coffee in the pot. Yuh get my drift. That’s why yuh need to be workin’. Now, I will say this character came right out of the Fruit Loops box, one of them whimperin’, snibblin’, wokist snowflakes.
Pard, sorry, didn’t mean to catch yuh in a slurp. But what many folk don’t realize that the problem with this world is sin and evil. The liberals, many of whom don’t believe in God, deny this. They think that by education, or the right diet, or the right environment, or the … that evil will disappear. Boy howdy–they don’t have a clue. Evil comes from the heart of man. An’ that fool CNN reporter who said that pull the trigger once and a hundred rounds of bullets will fire in a second show they don’t care enough about the truth to check their facts. They want a way out, an’ I’m a-thinkin’ that’s the kind of world ol’ Noah lived in. Ha, nothin’ goin’ to happen, let’s put the blame on somethin’ an’ continue to party-hardy–then the rain. This ol’ world is goin’ on the same way and then–the trumpet.
Go on an’ get ready to face the week. Listen to the preacher, grasp hold of tha gospel plow, an’ get ready to face the enemy next week. An’ be a-rememberin’ that “the word our God stands forever.” Be seein’ yuh, fight the good fight this week, and be a-checkin’ yur cinch.
Vaya con Dios.
