It's been a few days. I have been out of town for a conference, and time has been limited. Sounds like a poor excuse, I know, but it is true.
While riding back from the conference yesterday, with someone else driving, of course, I had the opportunity to read the book Happy, Happy, Happy by Phil Robertson, Duck Commander. I like Duck Dynasty. I like what they stand for. I like that they are Christians and aren't afraid to share the gospel. While the show is obviously scripted, it is good, clean, wholesome entertainment.
I am sure that some people don't like Duck Dynasty for one reason or another. I am equally sure that some don't like the show, and the Robertsons, because of their Christian stand. It seems to be okay to be anything in this country except an overt Christian.
Today's word is a quote from Winston Churchill, which says, "You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something in your life."
Phil Robertson has taken some criticism and heat for his beliefs. I applaud his unwavering stand and faith. There will ALWAYS be those who do not like you for one reason or another, some justified, most not.
If you find that you have enemies, that is not necessarily a bad thing. It may just mean that you have taken a stand at some point in your life, and standing for right is never wrong.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
