I'm glad I listened. Sometimes we need to go back and reread what has helped our focus before. It's like singing an old song. An old book can help you remember where you started.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1892882494743123782-316740782770412166?l=pastorjustincook.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor Justinnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892882494743123782.post-53138565746936520292010-06-29T12:46:00.000-07:002010-06-29T12:57:59.399-07:00Well, I moved to Mississippi last July, and I had to access the inner redneck. You know what? I love being a redneck. You see, it's not just camo and talking funny, it's taking life at a slower pace. What a relief! I have time to enjoy the little things now. Instead of trying to fit in everything for everybody, I don't plan unless I just want to. Come in on Sunday afternoon, church is out for family time; so, let's gas up the 4-wheelers and sling some mud. Yeah, you can laugh, but don't you get tired of being so busy. Every night I step out the back to let the dogs out one more time, and I look up at the stars. I don't think about tomorrow. I don't ask the Lord to forgive me for a list of sins. I actually enjoy God's creation. . .walking in the righteousness of Jesus Christ and not because I'm beating myself into perfection. Man, I think my blood pressure has gone down. Hey come down, too and visit. Welcome to Mississippi!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1892882494743123782-5313856574693652029?l=pastorjustincook.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor Justinnoreply@blogger.com0
