Friday the 13th under Attack

No need to fear, in fact thank God. It’s Friday the 13th under attack. There is self-control in not blowing your stack. No need to fear, in fact, thank God. Steer away from the charms, not the blessings. There’ll be no purpose for medical dressings. No need to fear, in fact thank God. There might be reasons, under a ladder, not to walk. You could cause a fall. No save for three-times-knock. No need to fear, in fact thank God. Why is faith so hard for humanity? Why instead try, so hard, for insanity? No need to fear, in fact thank God.

Very well said, Kim~~emphatically expressive! I think some people get really nervous about Friday the 13th and unwittingly cause themselves to have mishaps! Janice

Could be…those “chicken littles” For me it was crazy one Thursday the 13th. Wearing a Summer skirt, the sprinkler came on at the school I was working at. Dried in the sun. When the kids came into room for carpool, one kid threw his backpack and took me off my feet. Thankfully I survived! He felt really bad.

I never bother with superstition, but it is imperative to praise and thank God for His graces bestowed. Hugs.

Superstition does seem silly. But without knowing what's behind 'Friday the 13th, I avoid black cats, walking under ladders, etc.

You can’t help but step on the cat, walk under the ladder and miss what the date is when looking up, however dropping into the uncovered manhole…

Superstition is silly, as these words express, yet I still take a second look while thanking God. Your pure belief is refreshing.

Hello Kim, That is right. There is nothing to fear with the number 13th. I do not believe it is bad luck. Nor do I believe that a black cat is bad luck. I think they are beautiful. Are the people4 born on the 13th having bad luck? i do not think so. Enjoy your day my friend. /Darlene/ Hugs.

Thanks, Darlene! That’s why as a Christian we have true freedom. No need for charms, ouija boards, witchery, etc… We know our Creator has us and our best interest and He gives us eternal life!
