Psalm 118:6 (New International Version)
The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?
Two gas company servicemen, a senior training supervisor
and a young trainee were out checking meters in a suburban neighborhood. They
parked their truck at the end of the alley and worked their way to the other
end. At the last house a woman looking out her kitchen window watched the two
men as they checked her gas meter.
Finishing the meter check, the senior supervisor
challenged his younger co-worker to a footrace down the alley back to the truck
to prove that an older guy could outrun a younger one.
As they came running up to the truck, they realized the
lady from that last house was huffing and puffing right behind them. They
stopped immediately and asked her what was wrong.
Gasping for breath, she replied, "When I see two gas
men running as hard as you two were, I figured I'd better run too!"
Dear Lord help us not let the fear of others draw us in but
trust You completely. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
