Had some excitement on the drive to work tonight. We came around a corner and about 70 feet ahead of us is a medium size buck just starting across the road. I place foot on brake and begin to steer away from the deer which promptly begins to run across the road in front of the van, full brakes are applied, hard right to aim where he used to be, no contact made. The other person n the car responds, good job. That was quick, did not even get to grab the Jesus handle. The road conditions were good and the weather is nice. Everything is calm and a bit warm for me. Have the a/c running. Today we will read in Gods Word from: 2 Timothy 1:7-14 International Standard Version (ISV) 7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity but one of power, love, and self-discipline. 8 Therefore, never be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me, his prisoner. Instead, by God’s power, join me in suffering for the sake of the gospel. 9 He saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our own accomplishments,but according to his own purpose and the grace that was given to us in the Messiah Jesus before time began. 10 Now, however, that grace has been revealed through the coming of our Savior the Messiah Jesus, who has destroyed death and through the gospel has brought life and release from death into full view. 11 For the sake of this gospel I was appointed to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the gentiles. 12 That is why I suffer as I do. However, I am not ashamed, for I know the one in whom I have put my trust, and I’m convinced that he is able to protect what he has entrusted to me until the day that he comes. 13 Hold on to the pattern of healthy teachings that you have heard from me, along with the faith and love that are in the Messiah Jesus. 14 With the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us, protect the good treasure that has been entrusted to you. Lord we give thanks for your sacrifice, that we may have life immortal with you. We thank you for the Grace that makes us worthy even as we stumble and fall, time and again. Lord we thank you for your gifts to us and ask that you give us the wisdom and courage to ise them as you wish. In Jesus name we pray, Amen Posted 9/5 by Rusty
