Sunglasses
I have come to realize, after going through 3 pairs, I am hard on sunglasses. I have finally found glasses that don't make me look like a bug, or any other various insect, and I can't seem to keep them in one piece, or in the case of one of the pairs, even KEEP them. The first pair, I put in my purse at college weekend in Bluffton, and when I brought my arm down to my side, I heard a CRUNCH....I wasn't too distraught, but slightly annoyed. The 2nd pair, I searched for all over, Target, Wal-Mart, Kohls, Claire's, but no where did they have what I was looking for. Then finally I found a pair, so I bought them before I went to Jamaica, and then I proceeded to lose them in Jamaica. (Cody's prediction came true.) Then I found ANOTHER pair at the Wal-Mart in Alva Oklahoma. Bethany also wanted a pair so I got her some and myself some. Life was just great, and then today....I had them on when I went into Dad's shop, and I decided that they would be in Danger of being smashed by my rather "smashing" dad. ha! sorry...anyway...so I took them back out to his pick-up and put them in my seat, because surely I wouldn't crush them. Wrong. Dad was moving the gator up to Ralph's and so I jumped in the pickup, and tossed his waterjug over in the passenger seat. What did I hear? You guessed it, CRUNCH. I was like "You've GOT to be KIDDING me!" I have decided that Tif's nickname has come true. Idiotchild.

Walk with God
My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land that they may dwell with me. Psalm 101:6
Walk with God as Noah did; when the flood came, Noah was saved amidst the scorn and rejection of his neighbors. Walk with God as Moses did in the solitude of the desert; when the hour of judgment fell upon Egypt, Moses was prepared to lead his people to victory.
Walk with God as David did as a shepherd boy; when he was called to rule his people he was prepared for the task of kingship.
Walk with God as Daniel and his three young friends did in the palace of Babylon's king; when the fiery furnace and the lion's den came, God was beside them and delivered them.
No, God didn't always deliver His saints from adversity or even death, nor does He today. But because they had learned to trust Him in the light, they were prepared to follow Him in the darkness.
God has not promised to deliver us from trouble, but He has promised to go with us through the trouble. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me" (Ps. 23:4).
This is a passage out "Hope for Each Day" by Billy Graham that I read and thought I would share. May you all have a blessed weekend.
