Summer School

Since I've posted, school has ended, vacation was taken, and school has begun again. I am teaching Summer School this summer. The money is nice but the kids are a whippin'. I have 24 or so kids and all of their motivation and determination would not fill the bladder of a gnat. I would love to see how these kids were raised. I'm almost positive that they have endured all manner of parenting atrocities. I remember being somewhat apathetic as a kid about some things but these kids really don't care about anything except self gratification.

I think I feel some lectures brewing on the Simmons Lecture Circuit. I know it may be like standing on a Galveston Jetty peeing into Hurricane Don't Give a Crap but it is what I do.

I have not made good progress reading through the bible lately. I have begun Leviticus. I am surely happy that we do not have to burn our offerings to God. Most would be too squeamish.
  • 6) He is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
  • 13) He is to wash the inner parts and the legs with water, and the priest is to bring all of it and burn it on the altar.
  • 15) The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off the head and burn it on the altar; its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar.
  • 17 He shall tear it open by the wings, not severing it completely,

I thank God that he sent his son to be our sacrifice. He is good...all the time.
