Reeca's little thief

Those of you that know Max, I am sure have no doubt that he is a vicious guard dog, but I bet you never knew about some of his other skills. On Friday, the pest control service came to our house while both Reeca and I were at work. This was the first time that Jason had to come to our house so he had never met Max. I get a call at work about 2:00 and it’s from Jason. Here is the story. He was spraying in the back yard and did not realize that he had left the gate open. It was time for him to leave and when he went to get in his truck, he noticed mustard on his seat. He looked a little further and also noticed foot prints in his truck. Apparently Max has got out of the back yard, went around to the front yard, got into Jason’s truck and ate his lunch…burger and fries…and left only footprints and a little mustard as evidence then came back into the back yard/house without Jason noticing anything. He added a new entry to the computer file…Warning: Dog is a cat burglar. Don’t leave lunch unattended or truck door open.

Fellowship of the Unashamed

A good friend of mine has this as his signature in his email. After a little research, I found that it is called The Fellowship of the Unashamed. I am in.

The die has been cast. The decision has been made. I have stepped over the line. I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still.

My past is redeemed, my present makes sense and my future is secure. I'm finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap giving and dwarfed goals.

I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position, promotions, plaudits or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, love with patience, live by prayer and labor with power.


My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is Heaven, my road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions are few, my Guide is reliable, my mission is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of adversity, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.


I won't give up, shut up, let up until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up and spoken up for the cause of Christ. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till he stops me. And when He comes for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me


Thanks Bob!
