I had a little time this afternoon so I eased up to
Sweetwater State Park. I decided that I would combine two of my favorite activities. I
studied my Sunday School lesson while fishing for cats. It was a little cool and windy but
much better than my previous two trips to the Park. I was reading in Luke 1 about
Zechariah and Elizabeth. About the time Gabriel appeared to Zechariah one of my three
poles caught a fish! I am forwarding a picture. Please note the size of the fish compared
to my size 16 sneaker. I'm thinking the Channel cat was at least a size 18. I was using
chicken livers and a #2 Circle hook so he pretty much caught himself. I really didn't
expect to catch anything so it was a pleasant surprise.
I am not feeling particularly witty today so this report may seem a little dry. It
happens.
I was reminded of two truths today. 1)You can't catch a fish
unless you go fishing.2) God has used and will continue to use people who are faithful and
obedient. #2 is more important than #1.
I hope that everyone of you had a great day yesterday. We all
have so much for which to be thankful.
See you soon. Tight Lines!
