I have always loved to read and study about the Amish peoples. If I were not a true Southern Baptist, I believe I would convert to the Old Order Amish religion. I so appreciate their peaceful calm tranquility in the ways of working and doing for others. I believe we could all learn from these serene people. The work ethic is so ingrained into them that they rise in the early morning hours to begin their work days and end with the dark to stop the laboring. The most worthy attribute of the Amish is their desire to care for their own.

Do you remember?
Uncle Bob used to say that when he could not remember someone's name that Sport, his bird dog, drew a blank also. He did let Sport ride in the cab of his F-100, and often his faithful companion would sit behind the wheel. Eventually Sport learned to put his paws on the steering wheel, and from a distance it would appear that he was driving. Uncle Bob enjoyed the wide-eyed gazes from those passing by on the dusty gravel road in front of his house, which was several hundred feet away.

12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
— John !6:12-14 (NIV)

The outrages keep piling up day after day. On February 6, 2026 at 5:44 in the morning, the Truth Social Account from “Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump” tweeted a 62-second video of former President of the United States Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as hairy, muscular apes, swaying in a jungle to music. I do not know how many overt racists there are in the United States of America. I venture there are not enough to keep either the President or his party in power.
