Don Locke: Lookin Thru Bifocals

More thoughts and cogitations (SEE-VOO-PLAY)
-We can’t always say “yep” or “maybe” to the answer to a question.  Sometimes a short discourse wouldn’t hurt anything, if it’s short:
“You sure you know how to handle dynamite?”
A short metaphor in reply would hurt nothing here:
“Well, I’ve still got all my fingers and I don’t sing alto in the choir.”
-There is a restaurant in Louisville called WILD EGGS.  They are not from wild birds; it means you can have ‘em anyway you can cook an egg.
Did you really need to know that? Maybe not. But I guess it’s better to throw a “wild-egg” party, than a “wild-drunk” party.
By the way, THE CHICKEN CAME FIRST: Genesis I:21- “God created every winged bird according to its kind.” And unless my two college courses in poultry science lied, I learned that a chicken is a winged bird.
 -A lot of times where men go wrong is they fail to realize a man THINKS IN BLACK AND WHITE.  A woman does not.  We really don’t know what color a woman thinks in.
Let God do the hoops-jumping; we are only to “plant the seed.”  We don’t really need a lot of, “If you really want a revival say “A-Men” or “Let’s give God a hand”… jump through the hoop this way; now back through the other way.
Or, “Ole Joe Blo finished his study course before anybody else- let’s give Ole Joe Blo a hand.  Maybe you or it thinks Joe-Blo is a jackass, and doesn’t need or deserve a hand.
Be it known, all humans seek control of others- not always physical gain, but for psychological gain… mind gain. No? Do you ever want to win a discussion or argument? We feel weak when others control us.  We feel better when we control them.  Adam and Eve did not try to control each other until after SIN and FALL.  The Bible says, “She gave to her husband with her, and he ate the forbidden fruit.  Genesis 3:6.  It says nothing about Eve compelling him to eat it.  However, Adam looking at this beautiful, naked woman standing before him, he would have eaten a dozen green persimmons had she told him. 
Why? I know how men think- I ARE ONE….

Kindest regards…
