Does This Sound Familiar?

Ahhh...Memories.

On my customized "My Yahoo!" page, I get an odd news section and one of the headlines was "Teen points BB pistol at the wrong car".

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - A teenager pointed his BB pistol at the wrong car. The car stopped and the two men inside pulled out their real .40-caliber Glock handguns. They were undercover police driving an unmarked car.

They ordered Ryon Shelton, 15, of Cedar Rapids, to drop his gun, police said.

"They thought it was a real gun," police Lt. Kenneth Washburn said. "He dropped the gun and attempted to run and was apprehended."

Shelton told officers he was "just playing around" and trying to scare people during the Halloween night incident, police said.

He was cited for assault while displaying a dangerous weapon and released to relatives, police said.

Yep, I did this while in high school. I didn't point my cap gun at a cop car but someone did call us in and we had guns pulled on us. It's nice to see someone else who was as stupid as I was. ;)

GOD'S MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY
"Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
You corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor
I cast you to the ground;
I put you before kings,
That they may see you."
—Ezekiel 28:17

HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO MY LIFE?
Pride. We all have it. Some pride is a good thing. But when we exult ourselves, God hates it. This passage is referring to the city of Tyre and it's king. God endued up humbling Tyre by using Nebuchadnezzar to take it over and Tyre's king was killed. We need to remember to use what pride we do have for God's glory.
