Rubber Band Man

Xalt played yesterday at the Word of Life Christian Center, International…that is one of the places I would rather go to play than anywhere else.  The people are so incredibly filled with the Holy Spirit…they were having a Community open house with lots of fun stuff for the kids and the best food you have ever seen!  Kinda reminded me of what it would be like in Heaven at the buffet table…and the desserts…WOW!!!  The church is located on the top of a hill in Bordeaux, and the wind was really whipping everything and everybody around.  I have long hair, which kinda was starting to look like a mop…upside down…well, I was wearing a hat, but it wasn’t doing a bit of good.  So I asked around to the other girls in the band, hoping somebody had a hair bow of some type that I could corral my shagginess…but to no avail…so I said, Lord, I would just die for a hair bow of some type (Drama Queen, lol), even just a rubber band would work…well I guess he was listening because right then, I happened to look down on the ground, and what was curled up at my feet?  A Rubber band!  with the wind whipping around the hill there is no telling how long it would have stayed there…God even cares about the small things…that’s just one of the many reasons why I LOVE Him so much!

I can’t keep quiet!!!

Well, since the media chose to not mention this I have got to speak out!  I am not much of a writer, and normally prefer to read the blogs of my friends because they really are great writers, but apparently if I don’t tell this story it won’t be heard!  I took my teenagers and their friends to the Nashville Wave Country on Saturday.  Normally that is a great time to be had by all…until about 5:00 Saturday evening.  We were hanging out enjoying the pool when all of a sudden the buzz started…(it really reminded me of a swarm of bees)…I heard commotion and realized that about 30 black guys aged from 16 – 20 were absolutely stomping a mud hole in one black guy.  I don’t know exactly what he did to piss them off, but I hope that I never do that!  A lone security guard showed up to tell them to stop, and they did…for about a minute…until the security guard turned his back.  Then they proceeded to stomp the guy again, this time I know for sure breaking ribs and his face was just messed up big time…the security guard stopped it again but not until the guy that was the “stompee” was out like a light…and had to be surrounded by lifeguards while they called the real police.  I gathered my crew and we headed for the door…by that time there were 6 police cars, the fire truck, and an ambulance.  Did anybody hear about this on the news? NO!!!  People need to know that this happened at the Nashville Wave Country…my kids say it was gang related.  I know that the local news people heard that it happened on their scanner…which leads me to wonder, what else happens that we are not told about?  I can promise that my kids will not be going anywhere near the area again in the near future if ever, and I truly believe that there needs to be better security at these places.  I also believe that should include more that just making sure you don’t have glass bottles in your coolers…anybody could sneak in a knife or a gun…is that what is next?  Somebody has to get killed for it to make the news?
