Growing Up Poor

Growing Up Poor Miracle Man 1/26/2024 As a child An empty oat meal box, was my drum. Two pencils, fashioned my only sticks. Didn’t have many suckers, just my thumb. But I had oodles, inside my bag of tricks. “You’ve heard the old saying we were as poor as Job’s Turkey”? Well, this predated Job even having a turkey. But Boy, I have been blessed since! Thank You Jesus!!
