Marty Graw

It's FAT TUESDAY!!

If there's one thing I love about this town, it's that we take any and every excuse to celebrate. I know there is some historical significance to the parades, the beads, the colors... However, the fact is that it's mostly... well... just for fun!!! It's a brightly colored reminder that in life... sometimes you do stuff just for fun!!!

So, whether or not you'll be catching any beads or eating any king cake or shouting at glittery people on parade floats, find some time to enjoy yourself. Just for the fun of it. We have been created with the capacity to experience joy, pleasure, and well... just plain fun. When you throw back your head and laugh, you are reflecting the image of a God who also has the capacity to enjoy!! Matter of fact, He suggests in scripture that He enjoys me and you quite a bit!!

Happy Mardi Gras, my friends!!!
