"WARNING"
By John Kerr

It happened.  Well, I can’t say it just happened; I caused it.  

I was coming home the other day from Punxsutawney.  I decided not to go to the traffic light at Main Street, so I turned left on Madison Street to go up the hill.  When I got to the stop sign at Main Street, there was a truck coming up the hill.  I have seen trucks coming up that hill very slowly, but this one broke the record.  He was barely moving.  There was no one coming down the hill, so I pulled out and moved over in front of him.  Then the police lights came on behind me.  The officer was very kind to this old, crippled man.  After she explained my violation, she looked at my clam shell back brace and gave me a warning and said she wouldn’t want to see anything worse happen to me.  

I will certainly heed that warning.  While she was checking my license, insurance and registration, and writing my warning, I thought about the Bible and its many warnings, in particular warnings against pride.

Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
Proverbs 11:2 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.
Proverbs 16:5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the LORD; be assured, he will not go unpunished.
Proverbs 13:10 By insolence comes nothing but strife, but with those who take advice is wisdom.
Proverbs 26:12 Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
James 4:6 But he gives more grace. Therefore, it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

            By the grace of God I will certainly heed these warnings!

will return next week....

Come as you are and grow with us!
