Terry, Perhaps that’s what I like about you—our
commonality as “trailer trash”. I once lived in one, too. J I found it a
whole lot nicer than no roof at all. (I also know you are a fabulous gun maker,
which is every bit as impressive as anyone’s cardboard mortarboard.)
Okay, I’ll play. Although I
don’t think it is “easy” to describe what I find awesome
about the Lord. Perhaps it is His absolute tenderness, that He would care
to save a piece of “trailer trash”-- a little girl who had no
tenderness or beauty in her life, but had a big ache in her heart to know if
there was a God out there somewhere, and if there was that would He just please
let her know. That the Omnipotent would fall in love with a skinny little
waif that nobody else cared much about, and couldn’t have offered Him a
thing in exchange. That’s probably why I love animals, and old folks, and
other helpless things today. I’m sure that’s why I love Him. He is
the Tender One. Izzy From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On
Behalf Of Terry Clifton It occurred to me today during an off
line conversation that though we are almost all brothers and sisters in Christ,
we at the same time are strangers. I know a little more about some of you
who have been on TT longer, and I know David Miller from spending part of a
weekend in his company, but I still do not know any of you well. I
suspect that most of you have the same problem. I picture the more
educated among us as standing around in a gown and miter board with an armload
of books, maybe some horn rimmed glasses thrown in. They probably picture
me as the redneck dropout who can barely sign his name. Got the straw
between my teeth and the pickup truck on blocks in the front yard.
