Bear’s Road Trip

Bear has spent a few days in Milan Illinois, which is near Moline Illinois. Sister Pat was visiting her mother. Sister Pat’s mother is eight-two years young and can proof it. She can and did keep up with the best of shoppers including Sister Pat. That is really saying something since Sister Pat believes her spiritual gift is shopping.

Today we took a road trip looking for a quilting store that took us about thirty miles out of town only to find that the store had closed a few months earlier. On the way back Sister Pat tried to find an old school she had once attended using one of Pastor Jim’s newest toys, a GPS. Either the GPS is broken or Sister Pat programmed it wrong because we ended on gravel road going no where. I sat quietly as the discussed matter!

There is a little wisdom to be found in our gravel road adventure. If you really want true guidance on where you are going and the right way to go then depend on the Bible – people and doohickeys can let you down. When it comes to knowing God’s will for your life don’t look to horoscopes or the crowd for direction, look to the Word. And that’s the Bear Truth!
