FACING THE FACTS ON A FISHING TRIP

My wife and I were taking a short vacation in Destin, Florida, and the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico en-ticed us to want to go “deep-sea fishing”. We got up at four a.m. to depart from shore at five for a day-long fishing trip on a commercial party boat. Thirty other tourists joined us, with hopes and dreams of catching a big one.

By mid-day I had a string of small snapper and a few oth-er odd fish, and was working feverishly, trying to land at least one fish that was larger than three pounds.

I’ll never forget what happened next on that beautiful day. A young lady who was on the boat with us, in contrast to the rest of us, wore a nice dress with a matching white hat and white gloves. She enjoyed the ride on the boat but didn’t fish at all, simply exclaiming, “I don’t want to mess up my nails that I just had done!” I rolled my eyes at the absurdity of it.

A little later I heard her soft feminine voice say, “Well, I guess I need to fish a little bit. I just hope I don’t get my nails dirty.” I laughed to myself as I pulled in a one-pound snapper. “She will never catch anything! What a joke!”

Within just a few minutes, however, I heard a loud squeal from where the lady was fishing. My jaw dropped as I ac-tually saw her pull in a huge, beautiful forty-pound grou-per! It was the biggest fish anybody caught that day and much larger than any fish I had ever caught in my life! The lady was thrilled beyond belief. The entire crew cheered

and applauded. Her nails and her clothes were still clean. Everybody was smiling and laughing.

Everybody but me.

From the moment I saw that grouper I began to develop what some people call a “slow burn”. I continued to fish for a short while, but jealousy and resentment gradually took over my attitude until it showed on my face. I was no lon-ger having fun. My wife could see it, and wisely said not a word.

Snatching the rod and reel from the water, I walked away and stumbled up to the sundeck of the boat. Looking up into the sky, bitter and bloody and exhausted, I shouted an-grily into the heavens. “WHY? WHY? WHY!! God, you KNOW I work so hard to catch fish, and you have NEVER let me catch a fish like that! And this girl didn’t even try, and you gave her a bigger fish than I have ever had! WHY?” Much to my surprise, I got an answer! Across the blue Florida skies, coming straight to my heart, what I heard was…LAUGHTER. And by that, I knew He was saying something like, “It’s my ocean, son, and they are my fish. I can do what I want with them, and you’ll just have to deal with it.” And “deal with it was simply the only thing I could do.

Looking back now I realize that I learned two valuable les-sons that day. Both of them are clearly taught in Scripture, but learning it from the Book and learning it from life are not always the same.

The first lesson was the truth of Matthew chapter twenty, where the owner of a farm decided to pay the same amount to those who worked for one hour as he paid to those who worked all day long. It is a lesson in sovereignty. There is only one God, and I’m not it. Being God, He can give his big fish to a young lady and not to me, if that’s what he wants to do.

The other lesson is the truth of the elder brother of the prodigal son in Luke 15. (On the boat that day, I was just like him.) He had worked so hard for so long. He had done all the right things. When his wayward, undeserving brother got a big “welcome home” party, he resented it, and instead of enjoying the party he stood outside with a scowl. But the Father rejoices at the return of the prodigal!

This great story, of course, is a beautiful lesson of grace; a grace that could not be the reward of hard work, but is a great and wonderful GIFT to the undeserving, the unquali-fied, the unrighteous, who know that they could never ever pay for it... unless it was absolutely free.

But, Lord, isn’t there some way I could have learned this stuff and still got the fish too? (I think I might hear more laughter.)

As the little song goes, “He’s got the whole world in His hands.”

That includes the oceans, the fishes, and you, and me.

Agreement

What goes in will come out. Put God’s word in and words of life will come out. God’s word works and you better believe the devil knows this and will certainly try and steal it. He will try to distract you in every way possible to keep you from reading God’s word and especially from remembering it. Therefore it is important to read and renew your mind every single day. Don’t give the devil any headway. He knows you are dangerous to his kingdom because the word working deep inside you produces fruit to God’s glory for his word will never return to him void or in vain. Many Christians get the word in their hearts but never let it saturate their minds so their thinking can be transformed. They have a hard time living for God because of the worldly thoughts. We must surrender our hearts and minds to God. We must make a strong commitment to him so we can say with our whole hearts, “Not my will but yours be done.” I’ll do what you want, not what I want. We need to learn how to be in agreement with him.

A Note From the EditorI was looking forward to my first taste of fall this past weekend by way of a pumpkin pie. My Mom makes re-ally great pumpkin pies but, in her absence, I had to settle for what appeared to be a really yummy store bought pie. I carted the pie around throughout my shopping trip, repositioning it in the cart several times as I added larger, heavier items to the cart. When I arrived at the checkout, the pie was one of the first items placed on the belt. The cashier began to quickly scan my items and, as she grabbed the pie, she ran it across the scanner and squeezed the edge of the container shooting the na-ked pie into a plastic grocery bag. She snickered at the squished pie and I almost felt a moment of panic, not remembering if I had seen another pumpkin pie on the shelf or not.

Fortunately, another pie was located in the bakery sec-tion and my disappointment faded. In hindsight, I have mixed feelings about the reaction I had toward the com-fort food that almost got away. When service men and women overseas and far from home speak of things they miss most, family is usually followed by a tasty food pre-pared by a special someone. When my family enjoys our pumpkin pie, we will remember to be grateful for those who will have to wait many months to enjoy their own pies in the comfort of their homes – for protecting their beloved nation and families comes first and foremost.

¥ “I like to keep a few needles threaded with black, white and neutral thread for quick repairs. I keep them on a ribbon in my kitchen. I stuck the needles into the rib-

bon, then taped the ribbon at the top and bottom to the inside of a kitchen cabinet. Handy and safe.” -- A.A. in Florida

¥ Save your old tissue boxes. They can be used to store plastic grocery-store bags for easy access. They can then be stacked up and stored. I use mine as garbage bags.

¥ “If you start now and purchase or make a gift or two each week, you could have more than a dozen Christmas presents taken care of before December even begins. It’s a good way to ease the pressure on your time and your wallet.” -- L.S. in Indiana

¥ “I love to can and pickle my garden’s bounty, but since I give most of them as gifts, supplies can get costly. I have found many jars at thrift stores. And I have even seen seals and lids on occasion. Don’t forget to check them out from time to time. The jars are going to get sterilized anyway!” -- E.D. in Geor-gia

¥ Looking for a way to replace eggs in a recipe? Here are some substitutes: powdered egg substitute (Ener-G brand, for example); 2 tablespoons of ar-rowroot powder or cornstarch; 1 banana, mashed; a tablespoon of milled flaxseed mixed with 3 table-spoons of water.

¥ “To keep calendar entries straight, I use a differ-ent color highlighter for types of events or for each family member -- blue for appointments, or green for kids’ activities. A family calendar will help keep everyone in the loop.” -- A Reader, via email

Introducing Our New High School

You’re typing on your keyboard at your computer, trying to ig-

nore the tingling or numbness you’ve had for months in your

hand and wrist. Suddenly, a sharp, piercing pain shoots through

the wrist and up your arm. Just a passing cramp? You could have

carpal tunnel syndrome, a painful progressive condition caused

by compression of a key nerve in the wrist. Only a doctor can

diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition will only get

worse, and if left untreated, it can progress to the point where

pain killers or muscle relaxers must be prescribed, steroid injec-

tions or worse yet surgery may be needed.

In a conversation with Jen Adams a Licensed Massage Therapist

she said, “Massage Plays a major Role in the treatment of en-

trapment neuropathies because it addresses the soft tissues that

compress the entrapped nerve(s). Massage is the most effective

immediate treatment and can give relief for weeks to months at

a time if given by a knowledgeable Massage Therapist.”
