My mom doesn't like guns. When I married Brad, the ultimate hunter, she was scared and a bit irritated that we had guns in our house. She was not impressed with his shooting abilities and didn't want her grandkids living in a house with guns.
However, my mom and dad now live at the lake. A lake with snakes. If there is one thing she hates more than guns, it is snakes. We have discovered that the lake has snakes, what to do . . .
So, Brad and Paul went to Walmart, after much discussion on if it was possible to buy a gun on Sunday, we decided that since we were in Texas we could buy a gun anytime. So off they went to get her a gun to shoot the snakes. Now, in my mind I was picturing a small hand gun but they came home with a rifle. I am still laughing picturing my mom shooting a rifle at anything. I can't wait to take pictures during her lesson on how to shoot a gun. Priceless.
Let's not "give up, shut up, let up until we have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, payed up, preached up for the cause of Christ.*" We are disciples of Jesus and we will . . . "go till He comes, give till we drop, preach till all know, work till he stops us. When He comes for us He will know His own, our banner will be clear.** *African Pastor **David Platt http://www.brookhills.org/
