Love Does Chapter 2 – The Sniper “A magnificent shot of bellylaughter!”
I used to think I had do act a certain way to follow God, but now I know God doesn’t want us to be typical.
I heard about Jesus for the first time when I was in high school from a guy named Doug,what used to shoot BB guns with. We would go out in the woods by a reservoir and shoot at cans and old car fenders. Neither of us was a very good shot and we rarely hit what we aimed for, so we just called whatever we hit the target. There are a lot of people who still do that. Being in the woods and armed makes a 15-year-old feel like he has hair on his chest. the prospect of losing an eye also kept us coming back. it’s not necessarily a guy thing –well, actually it is a guy thing.
One day, Doug’s BB gun broke and he got a pellet gun. I wanted to have a pellet gun too, but I couldn’t find someone to hook me up with one, so I kept using my old gun I got when I was eight years old. There was a big difference between Doug’s legit pellet gun and my crummy BB gun. My gun didn’t shoot very far or very well. After it was cocked once, it could almost shoot across the room. That is unless a fan was on, then only about half that distance. It did have a slot where you could put a drop of oil that would turn into a puff of blue smoke when you pulled the trigger. Despite this fun little feature, mine was no match for Douglas gun, and we both knew it. Doug’s gun shot like a real gun too. He could pump it up it seemed like an unlimited amount of times, and we imagined it could pierce steel. He put a huge scope on the barrel and then put camouflage on the gun, mostly made of old socks painted green and some weeds. It was an awesome piece of firepower compared to my Daisy BB gun, even though mine had blue smoke and his didn’t. I thought I’d save up for a pellet gun like Doug’s and maybe a rifle rack too. Yes, definitely a rifle rack.
