Good Morning,
My Door County Blueberry Cobbler Coffee it tempting me to have more than one cup this morning. I feel temptation kicking in.
Proverbs 20:11 Even a child makes himself known by his acts, by whether his conduct is pure and upright.
We live near the city where our state fair is held each year at this time. I have always had a soft spot for the state fair or a good county fair. Once I am through the entry gate, I have a routine and it starts with an Italian sausage covered with peppers and onions and some brown mustard. I tour each aisle of the fair and take in one amusement ride. (Tilt A Whirl). Basically I lose myself in the fair atmosphere for a couple hours. I might or might not take in the Monster Truck show. It all depends on my mood. I eat some Chinese tempura, drink a lemonade, listen to the barkers selling knives that are guaranteed to last 100 years. I might recall a night or two back in my high school days when I could swing a sledge hammer and ring the bell which won me a big teddy bear that I could give to the girl of my choice.
But for a couple hours there is a care free attitude and the need for a Tums.
My point for today, is that just every now and them you have to just check out and let your mind have a rest. Go and do something that makes you happy. I might take a ride on the Ferris wheel with my wife and sneak in a smooch or two when our basket reaches the top.
I will go home, pray before I sleep, and think about going to the fair next year if God is willing. Sometimes it's nice to feel like a kid again.
God bless.
Marty
