  I sure have found it difficult to find time to post on this spot. My days are very busy. Wake at 5:00 to be at work by 6:00 then get off at 3:30 and work on the house. It's been a long day. I did get a call on my truck though after I got home. The guy seemed interested, but wanted to talk for quite a while about his old truck and other endless ramblings. Meantime I had to be at the Lott's to watch Allison and Drew so Kevin and Kathy could visit Kathy's mom in the hospital. Hopefully this guy will buy the Scout for the money I'm asking so I can buy a Super Duty. It's funny how before I decided to sell my Scout I was pretty attached to it. Now that I've decided not only in my mind but also in my heart to sell it, I've become detached, but for some reason it won't detach from me. Isn't it ironic? Don't ya think? A little too ironic... I sure wish I had the time to record all of my thoughts.
On the way to work I think about all kinds of interesting things as well as on the way back. I was just thinking about how interesting it is that people often use earthly things to attract friends or people of the opposite sex. It seems that every time me or someone I know tries something silly like that you get exactly what you have.
You get a boyfriend/girlfriend or friends that are shallow and are interested in either your earthly possesions, your physical image or any of those other things that fade and do not last. On the contrary when you use the fruits of the spirit, the presence of the Lord, character, integrity, purity and so on, you find that you'll attract people that have depth and will build you up in your relationship with Christ.
Lord let those who come to me, come out of an attraction to you. Even if it means that I am to be poor and broken and at a loss for all the things the world holds dear, let them see you and be attracted by you. I have nothing that is worth anything to offer anyone that they can't get somewhere else. You are all I have that is worth anything. You are the only One true thing that will always stay the same. Help me to better understand that, and help others to see that as well.
