February 2
Its Ground Hog Day! Tradition says that if he sees his shadow today there will be six
more weeks of winter. I grew up hearing these old sayings. Many are found in
the Bible. My Mom said "red at night, sailor’s delight...red at dawn
sailor be warned." (Matt 16) My dad , "there is a fly in the
ointment." Ecclesiastes 10:1.
“Pride goes before a fall,” my grandmother chided. (Proverbs
16:18)
I grew up hearing these paraphrases of Solomon's wisdom..
Pity I didn't grow up hearing, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who
believes in Me though he may die, he shall live." (John 11:25)
