Without purse and scrip


Here's a picture for you: Two old grey-haired retirees in a Church bookstore. He has a brand new cell phone. She has to call youngest daughter to get information for putting name on a set of scriptures. The clerk is hovering waiting for the information. Long story short: it takes ten minutes to figure out the @##phone. Clerk is tapping her foot. Finally get the call through and Jennie isn't there. It was a little embarrassing! I reminded Garth that early missionaries went without purse or scrip (is that right?) and he's going with a top of the line cell phone, no less. A friend recently commented in a conversation about cell phones, etc. "If men can come up with that kind of technology by using less than 10% of their finite minds, think what God can do with his totally infinite mind!" Something to think about.
