Jumping Through Hoops

 by Macy Johnson

“Throwing his cloak aside,

he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus.”

(Mark 10:50 NIV)

 

Bank of America declined my Norton/LifeLock renewal charge and sent me a fraud alert via text and email. The bank claimed it was suspicious activity. The same amount has been automatically charged for my annual renewal to this card on the same day of the year for the past decade. Yet, I had to jump through a hoop this year to approve the charge.

Deer Whistles

 by Macy Johnson

“The sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder.

Then Moses spoke and the voice of God answered him.”

(Exodus 19:19 NIV)

 

My husband, Jeff, reminds me to watch for deer while driving on our country roads. It is not a matter of “if” I will hit one, but “when” one will run into my car. We have both had collisions with deer in our rural Georgia community.
