Cars In the Bible?

A long haired teenage boy and his dad were talking one day about the boy getting a car for his 16th birthday.
The dad told his son that if he could pull his "c" grade point average up to a "b" average, start getting serious about his Bible studies and get a hair cut, then they would talk about him getting a car.
The next few months the boy worked hard at school, pulling his grade point average up to "b", and he studied his Bible every night. His dad said, "Son, I'm very proud of your of your grades at school and I have noticed that you have read in your Bible every night, but I must admit that I'm a little disappointed you've made no effort to cut your hair."
The son answered saying, " Dad, in my Bible studies I've learned that Sampson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair and there is strong evidence to believe that even Jesus had long hair."
The dad thought for a moment and replied, " Yes son and did you also read that those men traveled on foot!"


This joke really made laugh! Kevin and I have a 17 (yes 17) year old and Kevin is always on him about cutting his hair! I know most of you have young children, but just wait, your day is coming!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July. Remember to pray for those men and women overseas and here in the states who are away from their families to give our families "Independence " and freedom. God bless you.
