Friends...

Ol' 'Lanche and I really appreciate our friends. We love 'em all. It seems to me like I'm especially blessed with all the friends that I have. I suppose everyone feels the same way pretty much but I just wanted to say so "out loud". After all, the scriptures do teach us that hidden love is worse than an open rebuke (Prov 27:5). I seem to recall a buncha years ago being brought up short by that scripture and have tried to be a better person in that regard than I was before.
Anyhow, I wasn't thinkin' of doin' a sermon---I was actually thinkin' on how much a couple of my friends have really showed me love recently. One of them actually volunteered to do yard work for me---mowing lawns and such. He's been a real Pal and I love hanging out with him and doing all kinds of fun stuff like lookin' at cars, motorcycles, trucks, trains and more.
Another friend (a very awesome and special person) having heard of my being ill recently (I am quite well now, Thank our God who heals) sent me one of those Hallmark Get well e-cards or whatever they're called and it absolutely made my day, week, month...!!! In fact I've pulled it up to see it more than just once---it was just way cool and cute and got me to chucklin' for quite a spell and still spurs a silly grin on my ol' mug whenever I happen to think of it---and somehow I just felt better all over for having received it!!! It even tickled Ol' 'Lanche's funny bone!!!
Now this blogging thing. Ol' 'Lanche and I kinda cotton to it! We like being able to stay in touch with our friends this way---it's awesome!!! May the good things it inspires in us continue...
