This is me at age 6 from when we lived in Sherwood. These are two ducks my dad killed and this is as close to being a hunter as I'll ever be. I did give hunting one try when I was older but my desire to eat my candy bar overshadowed the need to be quiet. I knew then and there, hunting was not my sport. Duck is the only wildlife I will eat but other than that it's beef, chicken, pork or fish.
Many people are hunting for meaning and purpose in this life. Until you know you were made by God and for God, you'll never understand life. People that can see, are yet blind and those that hear, are yet deaf to what is really important. Our target is heaven but our aim is based on our relationship with Christ. Is your sight set on your future above or the here and now?
Good post, Angie.
ReplyDeleteGood question. I heard Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ say once that when we get to Heaven, we won't be asking Jesus, "HOw did you like my new truck?"
ReplyDeleteGood question and good analogy. Mom
ReplyDeleteYou and your blog are the real hunters, you hunt up sinners and make them think about were they are going to be when they die, just like the ducks above we do not know when our time is up. Great blog, Angie. Dad
ReplyDeleteThat's a great introduction to the upcoming hunting season! With the cooler weather I'm starting to think in that direction. I assume your dad will be headed for North Dakota for pheasants. And before that is dove season. I hope you're doing well. Have you found another helper? Have a great day. Joel
ReplyDeleteHi Angie, I love seeing these old pictures of you. You were sooo cute! Aunt Robbie
