Tales From Two Texas Paw Paw

Hi folks, this is 2 Texas PawPaw and the reason for this blog is I like to tell stories and try to write a little poetry now and then. Most of my writings is about my family because I have the greatest family in the world, I realize if you dont know my family, it might be a little boring to you but maybe my family will get a kick out of some of it anyway, Hope you like it and if you dont, well, thats ok too, you're still my friend.

"THE CURE FOR DISAPPOINTMENT"

Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw. Is there ever a cure for disappointment? Psalm 18:30 says, THE WAYS OF GOD ARE WITHOUT FAULT. Make sense? When God doesn't do what we want, it's not easy. Never has been. Never will be. But faith is the conviction that God knows more than we do about this life and He will get us through it. Remember, disappointment is cured by revamped expectations. I like the story about the fellow who went to the pet store in search of a singing parakeet. Seems he was a bachelor and his house was too quiet. The storeowner had just the bird for him, so he bought it. The next day the bachelor came home to a house full of music. He went to the cage to feed the bird and noticed for the first time that the parakeet had only one leg. He felt cheated that he had been sold a one-legged bird so he called and complained to the store owner. The store owner replied, "What do you want, a bird that can sing or one that can dance"? Good question for times of disappointment. Remember, He Still Moves Stones!!! Just a thought for the day. This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.
