He said, John, don't you see, can't you see. It's not about you and me, Its about those cotton picken Dodgers I said, Lord , I don't understand I'm trying to see but I'm just a man and you're the Great God Almighty talking to me about those   " cotton picken Dodgers" ????? He said, Well, papa John, here's what I've got in mind. It seems to me that when we're in church, we do just fine -- you and me. Then you leave to do what you do. You shut me up in this bilding. You expect me to just sit here and wait for you. I'ver never seen a game, I've never warn Dodger blue.   LORD, I said, I'm seeing what you mean  !!!!!! I'm understanding your complaint. I do the best I can, but, in the end, I am no saint.   Oh but you are, He shouted. I'm just asking that you take me with you I want to see a game. I want to wear Dodger Blue.   So we did some shopping and to my surprise, We found a Dodger jersy that was just His size. And we went to a game, Him and me. And we watched them win. And He said to me, I really want us to do this again. And  I was sure the boys on the team wanted that too. Cause I hear them say, as we walked away, the Lord sure looks good in Dodger blue.   Have a good weekend  -- it's been an awesome week. John Smithson love you guys and I don't even know ya.
