My 2 teenage daughters (taller than I) want to walk the .9 mile to the mailbox.

One of them had to go change her flip flops to tennis shoes.
Does anyone else realize with all the new technology and the unending passing of laws that are suppose to make us safe, that we are not any safer?
Man's heart doesn't change apart from the saving grace of Jesus Christ.

For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

Psalm 53:1
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

Ezekiel 36:26,27
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
