Jack Mattox Recreation Complex

 


Sunday morning. I needed to go to church early because the falling leaves would be all over the church sidewalks, and someone (me) needed to blow them off.  On the way, Marleen and I passed the Jack Maddox Recreation complex.  At 8:30 on Sunday morning the parking lot was full of cars!  Ball players of all ages (and their parents) packed the ballfields on a gorgeous Sunday morning.  But nearby, there were only two cars at Philadelphia Baptist church.  And they, like me, were preparing for church.  I Timothy 4:8, “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”  And in 100 years, please remember this post.  And if you happen to be in heaven, please stop by my mansion and we’ll have a chat and reminisce a bit.
