Great Grandfather

Dottie´s great grandfather had a grocery store and gasoline station. This was drawn over 90 years ago.

Dottie´s grandfather owned this grocery store and gas station near Marksville, Louisiana. She says that going to the home of her grandparents was scary. Her grandfather was always serious. When Dottie introduced him to me he said “You got yourself a LITTLE FELLOW. He was abiut 6´2¨.

I think we have hung all the photographs to Dottie´s specification. Thirteen in all.

Colton will preach for me Sunday. Our dorm parents can all teach the Word of God, so I want to give them an opportunity. Plus, I enjoy listening to good preaching.

An 18 -wheeler turn over right in front of Casa. It was loaded with sand and closed the highway for hours. Our maintenance workers removed the sand from the highway No one was hurt.

I went to the grocery store and it was one of the few times I have driven alone in many weeks. I just am not relaxed when I drive in this crazy traffic. Thankfully Orlando is an excellent driver.

What you are is God´s gift to you, what you become is your gift to God.

The next name for Jesus is found in John 8:12, “Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the LIGHT OF THE WORLD: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have light of life. In John 9:5 He used this name when he healed the blind man. The Jewish people of Jesus´s time were filled with pride.

They realized that God chosen them as His people. But they forgot all that God had done for them. They truly were in the dark. But the Jews wanted the Messiah just for them. But He is the LIGHT OF THE (entire) WORLD.
