I enjoy watching new buildings getting higher and higher. It isn't long before the building is higher than the highest crane. However that is no problem. The workmen put together a new crane on top of what has already been built and so the building...
All the recent rain left some serious road damage on our way home. Today they were patched. Patching works but it isn't the same as new. As I bounced across one of them I immediately thought of Matthew 9:16. Jesus said, "No one puts a...
