Cybersalt News

Sunday greetings everyone!

You may notice a little formatting change in the Cybersalt Digest today. There will continue to be a CleanQuote in each issue, but we are no longer going to make a graphic version of each quote. Grandma Cybersalt, who lines up each item before I write the news and send everything out, has been making those graphics.

I think Susan has done a great job making them, but she is super busy with her work for refugees and running our household so I thought I'd make it a bit more efficient for her work on the bi-weekly digest. I am regularly in awe at how she gracefully organizes and juggles all the roles and jobs she has taken on. 

In fact, the person in this week's video share has nothing on my wife!

Driving to a new restaurant, a woman took several wrong turns. When she finally found the right road, she asked her husband, "Why didn't you tell me I was lost?"

"I thought you knew where you were going," he replied. "You always know where you're going when I'm driving."

I was the editor of a small daily newspaper. Someone came into the newsroom and asked if anyone was a notary public.

One not too bright reporter said, "I guess I am. I voted that way in the last election.”

"Since it is so likely that children will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage."

- C. S. Lewis

A golfer, now into his golden years, had a lifelong ambition to play one hole at Pebble Beach, California the way the pros do it. The pros drive the ball out over the water onto the green that is on a spit of land that juts out off the coast.

It was something he had tried hundreds of times without success. His ball always fell short, into the ocean. Because of this he never used a new ball on this particular hole. He always picked out one that had a cut or a nick.

Recently he went to Pebble Beach to try again. When he came to the fateful hole, he teed up an old cut ball and said a silent prayer.

Before he hit it however, a powerful voice from above said, "WAIT...REPLACE THAT OLD BALL WITH A BRAND-NEW BALL."

He complied, with some slight misgiving, despite the fact that the Lord seemed to be implying that He was going to let him finally achieve his lifelong ambition.

As he stepped up to the tee once more, the voice came down again: "WAIT...STEP BACK... TAKE A PRACTICE SWING."

So he stepped back and took a practice swing.

The voice boomed out again, "TAKE ANOTHER PRACTICE SWING."

He did. Silence followed.

Then the voice spoke out again: "PUT BACK THE OLD BALL."

Featured Illustrations are items well suited for illustrating or inspiring a point in a sermon, speech, or devotional. Funny, moving, or perhaps even graphic, the point of them is the point you make with them.

Rev. James Snyder, God's Penman, writes . . . . 

Several months ago, I had two cataracts removed from my eyes. How they got there, I don't know. As far as I can remember, they never asked my permission, and furthermore, they never paid rent for being there.

According to the eye doctor, and doctors are never wrong, I now have 2020 vision. I've never had such vision since I was ten years old.

All I really need now are reading glasses, and my vision is quite good.
