Hello, this is pastor gary from first baptist church of laplata. From the “Crooks are Stupid” file: McDonald’s is known for happy meals, but Antoine Simms was not happy with his. Mr. Simms’ order was taking too long, and his french fries were cold; so, he called 9-1-1 to complain. The McDonald’s manager also called 9-1-1 because Mr. Simms was so irate and was wearing a law enforcement ankle bracelet. When police arrived, they ran a criminal check on Mr. Simms and learned that he was a wanted man. When the police officer attempted to arrest Mr. Simms, Mr. Simms fled and was tased and dropped to the ground face first. Instead of eating McDonald’s, he ate pavement. The arresting officer replied, “It’s very unusual that someone knowing he is wanted by police would call the police, but Mr. Simms did that.” The Bible is clear in Numbers 32:23, “…and be sure your sin will find you out.” We sin, and God knows it; one way or another, our sin will be revealed. Remember this: when we cover our sin, God uncovers it; when we uncover our sin through confession, God covers it by grace.
