The Works

Recently, we sat in a restaurant on a Sunday night, enjoying hotdogs and french-fries. Almost exactly fifty-five years earlier, on our first date, I had ordered a hotdog with the works then too. Unbeknownst to me, that’s not how Paula liked her hotdogs.  To make matters worse, as she waited in the 65 Corvair I was driving, she ended up in a haze of blue smoke because oil had apparently fallen on the manifold.

They said our teenage marriage wouldn’t work out. They forgot we could call out to One who could help when we found ourselves in the troubled waters of life’s sea.

Anytime you’re against the current thought and public opinion, have a little talk with Jesus.

Matthew 6:33 

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Matthew 7:11 

If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

Give it some thought and always order with the works.
