Holildays are arround the corner..

This is always an odd tme of the year. Middle school students are having mid term tests in a couple of weeks. There are two weeks with holidays in October. In the past we would closely examine if the holidays fell on a weekend. If it did we would not get any week days off. Well the central goverment found out that this practice slowed spending. 

Now we will get a weekday off which leads to more families heading out and well spending money. Actually, it is not just families but singles, couples, and groups of friends and families usually take advantage of the time off. Just go any popular place to relax like camping sites, resorts, beach front areas and others. You will see large numbers of people gathering.

We are learning a valuable lesson. If we want to keep and maintain our peace we should associate with those who love, respect, and want to imitate Jesus Christ, and Jehovah God.. We do not do this if we are constantly spending time and "rubbing" shoulders with those who put faith not in Jehovah but in this world. 

In the past we would just do our own thing. It was me who would go over and "rub shoulders" with them. This took our peace away. I was a root cause of many conflicts with my wife because I was spending time not with those whose faith is in the living God.  I was spending time wth those ready to debate, argue, even fight for them. I know we can not avoid them, but we need to make an effort to not "rub shoulders" with them. 

Ok time to go for now.
