Thoughts While Shaving
Spread the love

Thoughts While ShavingBeen thinking about heaven!  Just wonder how it will accommodate the political right wingers, the left wingers and Independents, the many different religious affiliations/organizations?  Not being an expert on anything, I wonder if one group will have an advantage over another?  What I really think is, if you don’t love your neighbor as your self, treat others as you would like to be treated, respect others, honor and accept God, walk in his likeness, space may be limited.  I know it’s not that simple, but if we can’t do unto others as we would have them do to us, on earth, as we are commanded, may not be room for many earthly, self-righteous right or left wing experts….just thinking out loud. I know, ‘Judge not that ye be not judged’. Not judging, just quoting from the good book. (Mathew 7:1 KJV)

Now lets sing a hymn, pass the plate and the alter is open to all.

Two weeks from today, high school football practice begins!  Bet on hot weather.

Public school begins for students on August 28, and earlier at Emereau, Bladen County’s new Charter School.  Google both sites for additional info.

Not sure where to begin with our BladenOnline weekly stats, so I will just dive in.
