Been Thinkin About "Tootin My Horn"

I am aware of all your comments and views. I have taken the time to “react and a few comments” to some. I am humbled that about 200-300 are reading this stuff that pops in my head for the day. I am blessed is all I can say. I don’t believe that I will ever publish for reasons I will talk with you about later. One of them is I’m not selling my stuff or better yet, I won’t push something so I can say it sold. I’m not sayin it’s wrong but I won’t.

With that said, I would ask you to share the post if you thought it was worth your friends reading it. Now if you did not then I understand completely. As a pastor I preached a few sermons that I couldn’t wait to hear myself shut up. I share with you the stuff that I think will help you and others.

This tootin my own horn reminds me of a Ronald Reagan story. When he was Governor of California, he made a speech in Mexico City. “After I had finished speaking, I sat down to a rather unenthusiastic applause, and I was a little embarrassed. The speaker who followed me spoke in Spanish—which I did not understand—and he was being applauded about every paragraph. To hide my embarrassment, I started clapping before anyone else and longer than anyone else until our ambassador leaned over and said, “I wouldn’t do that if I were you. He’s interpreting your speech."

I know that fb is a platform that is used for various goals and most are are "selfy-ish" goals. But my pm txt tells me something is happening. I know many of you personally but many more I do not know. Many don’t know my background as a pastor or my education in theology and counseling. Many will discover my love for Jesus, Jean , family and His Church. I don’t know you, but I do know SomeOne who does, and He can definitely help.

I am old enough to remember when folks use to care about others and we have to (we must) get back to that. So instead of me making inappropriate comments to your weight loss picture of the 200th time, I’ll share with you “been thinkin” stuff.

So, if it fits your wheelhouse introduce me to your friends or toot my horn. I really want to encourage, remind, direct, or just make them smile with what the good Lord put in my head. I’m asking you to SHARE, will you?
