Do all the really good melons in Texas still come from Hempstead? Around here, the small (microscopic) town of Sugartown is the watermelon mecca, that's where all the really good melons come from!<BR/><BR/><B>m2</B> Glad you are enjoying the journal.

"Hiding", whether from where the path has taken us lately or simply finding ourself with a need for momentary "isolation", is a good practice as long as it is "in Him". As far as the watermelon, red, yellow, or seedless, I'm afraid by now the image is stuck in my mind and its just not my taste for fruit. How about a big bowl of strawberries instead?......Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302132941940784968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-1122174017233457572005-07-23T22:00:00.000-05:002005-07-23T22:00:00.000-05:00Jim, I have a friend who loves watermelon, but ref...Jim, I have a friend who loves watermelon, but refuses to eat the yellow melons because they gross her out to see them. As for working to eat something, I feel that way about eating boiled crawfish, too much work for too little substance!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the Biblical references. The thought of the original conversation was my need to "hide" from well-meaning people who had no experience with which to identify with the adversity I was dealing with at the time.anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14900362807680333144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-1122036614615489502005-07-22T07:50:00.000-05:002005-07-22T07:50:00.000-05:00I don't do watermelon, having two rules about food...I don't do watermelon, having two rules about food: (a) I must be able to look at it if I'm going to eat it; and (b) if I have to work at eating it, why bother? Watermelon possess enough seeds to fall nto the latter category, especially when I consider that, take away the salt, the only taste I get from it is that which its name suggests....As far as "hunkering down and hiding", my friend, go to Isaiah 30:15 and you'll find it to be one of four Biblical statements that tell us how to be "saved". If you then flip back to Isaiah 28:12 (plus a verse or two above it), you'll get a good idea of what "rest" is. I'm not "pushing" tongues, just the truth that there is a "hiding place" in Him.......I'm enjoying your visits. Peace, my friend....Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302132941940784968noreply@blogger.com
