a total stranger come up to me in the coffee shop...about my age.
The makings of a great start to the day. In the 70's, after I got my college degree and started preaching, I wanted to be a philosopher/prophet, maybe with my own followers of a sort peculiar to my denomination. I might have prefered about seventy five followers. But I was such a skinny kid and I looked barely past my teenage years. I was drawn to the life of ideas and sitting and pronouncing poetry. lol. I wonder if I have changed. I see in Paul another type of man who would spend very little time chasing through the house looking for mirrors of himself. Can you imagine stopping him on one of his walks and inquiring in this manner? "Excuse me, Paul, I have some curiousity about this fellow Jesus that is rattling around in my head, because I hope someday to be a coffee shop owner/guru and see if I can be a philosopher poet who can gain some sort of following. Can you give me some help on that, Paul?" ABC.
i am just an oldtimer for the Lord.
