View Point

Isaiah 26:1-9
Psalms 46, 48
2 Corinthians 5:16-6:2
John 8:12-19

2 Corinthians 5:16-6:2

There are many miles in Texas that are bereft of gas stations. This is a scarry thought for those of us who live in the city where there is a gas station on almost every corner or for Brits who live in a postage stamp sized environment. We had friends visiting from England. They were driving on 59 near King Ranch. No gas stations. They spied one on the other side of the divided highway and in the distance was a link between the two parts of the road. Great, gas before the long nothingness. In the distnce was a little white speck. That was all for this is one of those seemingly barren areas inhabited by lonely cattle. The white speck grew and became a police car. Did they know that only 'official' vehicles (the latter word spoken in at least two separate words) were allowed to use that handy link from southbound to northbound?
Viewpoints - speck to menacing police car
- deliberate offender to visiting alien.
I am biased. All the experiences of my life have had an influence on how I view the world and those whom I meet. I need to be ware of this and if I have to judge use the correct terms of reference, ie Jesus.
