"We Couldn't Play Marbles..."

Old lady, one of the church mother's is talking about the old days and how her parents would not let her play with mables because the Bible said, "Marble not."

Thing is, she is serious. Her parents misunderstood the scripture, but they were sincere.

No marbles. No cards. No dice.


Marble not.

She is praising God now, looking back where God has brought her from. I think she is in her 80's.


Marble.
Not.

Re: "We Couldn't Play Marbles..."

Stuck on marble not.

Is church attendance ever a waste of time?

Not today I guess. I praised the Lord earlier but I could have done that in my car.

I am here with my brothers and sisters.

There is value in being here, even when it is not clearly apparent.

Marble not.
How does that happen?

Stan Lee is understandably saddened by that scripture.

She must be a fan of DC.

Re: "We Couldn't Play Marbles..."

If you do a quick Bible search for "Marvel Not" there are several where Jesus Himself marveled.

Poor thing needs to read the rest of the verses she's quoting partially....there's always a comma after, Marvel Not.

Context context context

Poor thing will likely be among the first in line for a crown of gold because unlike a lot of people, she just simply obeyed Scripture as best she knew rather than try to debate God over to seeing her side of things.
