“Finally, brothers, whatever is true,
whatever is noble,
whatever is right, whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable – if anything is
excellent or praiseworthy –
think about such things.”
(Philippians 4:8 NIV)
GIGO is an
acronym for Garbage In, Garbage Out. It is a term I kept in my mind’s forefront
as I wrote computer programs in COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language) in
the 1980’s.

“In his heart a man plans his course,
but the Lord determines his steps.”
(Proverbs 16:9 NIV)
My
grandson would be celebrating his birthday soon. We lived too far away to join
in the festivities, so I ordered a gift for him on Amazon to be delivered to
his home. A few days later, as I was addressing his birthday card, I noticed a
discrepancy in the addresses. “Oh no!” I thought. Noah’s old address was in
Amazon, because I had sent him a gift in the past. His new address was staring
me in the face.

“His work will be shown for what it
is,
because the Day will bring it to
light.
It will be revealed with fire,
and the fire will test the quality of
each man’s work.”
(1 Corinthians 3:13 NIV)
I keep a
collection of my God Sightings books on hand to give away as hostess or
birthday gifts. My personal supply was running low, so I ordered a handful of
each publication. The book copies rested on my desk waiting for me to autograph
and put them with the others in a portable bin.

“They still did not understand from
Scripture
that Jesus had to rise from the dead.”
(John 20:9 NIV)
An
assumption is defined in the Cambridge English Dictionary as something that
you accept as true without question or proof.
We patiently
waited in my Tahoe in the lane to turn left onto Highway 11. It had been a fun
morning at the library and adjacent park in Trussville, Alabama. With a Happy
Meal, chicken nuggets, a burger, and milkshakes, my grandchildren and I were
headed home.
