The Gallagher Adventure

Last year while at Family Christian Bookstore I purchased a Bananas Comedy DVD Sampler and discovered the hilarious Tim Hawkins. My family loves to watch family comedy, i.e. stand-up comedians who use appropriate language and illustrations. Tim is one of those.

Here is Tim’s Parody of Carrie Underwood’s “Jesus Take the Wheel”. Enjoy!

The sound of falling water fills the air as my two fishing partners and I make our way through the drizzling rain and the tall ferns to our little fishing spot. For several years, Alexis and Emma have spent time with me throwing a line in this still small creek. Today, the rains have caused the current to carry the water at faster than usual speeds.

As we equipped ourselves with the latest Berkley Trout Turbo Powerbait, we dared the fish to bite our hooks. We dared and dared as we continually tied to keep one line in the water at all times. If you are a parent who has ever taken your children fishing, you understand. For me and my fishing partners to get one line  in great, two lines is amazing and if we ever get three lines in at one time the Lord might come back — But today we did! Three lines in the water and two brook trout caught. Each trout was about 9 to 10 inches long and beautiful in color.

Fishing at the cabin is a fascinating experience. The water is calming to the soul; the land is God’s precious gift to man and the trout are a glimpse into the creative power of the Most High. My fishing partners make each fishing trip, no matter at the cabin or at home, most amazing. Their sincere appreciation for the gifts of God show through in each word.

May God grant each of is the excitement children provide in our lives! May God have mercy on our souls as we live day by day in a busy world filled with busy people. May God continually grant us the peace that passes understanding.

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! (Psalms 127:3-5)
