IT MATTERS 'WHO' SAYS SOMETHING!!!!!

I have been thinking about 'this one' for over a month or more & it's kinda short, but STILL VERY IMPORTANT, I think:

"IT MATTERS WHO SAYS SOMETHING"--I re-discovered this at Tony Gonzalez's Charity Dinner & Auction about 6 weeks ago. He & ALL the other CHIEFS players who were there were VERY NICE to all of us 'fans' & were making PICTURES with ALL OF US with NO FUSS!!!!!!!!

They just weren't giving out ANY autographs, which is no big deal to me--I'd MUCH RATHER have a PICTURE made WITH THEM!!!!!!!!! In fact, Donnie Edwards--MY FAVORITE PLAYER--made OUR picture HIMSELF--because his arms are PLENTY long enough!!!!!!!!! And, I got to VISIT with him for over 10 minutes TWO different times that night!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think he MIGHT even REMEMBER me, now!!!!!!!!! MEETING HIM MADE MY NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LJ--Larry Johnson, our GREAT Running Back, was also there & I got a picture with him--I had met him before, but not had a picture made with him--he even had on a colorful tie & I told him his Mother WOULD BE PROUD of how he looked/was dressed!!!!! He's EXTRA SHY!!!!!!!!--I think, now, THAT'S WHY he doesn't talk with reporters most of the time!!!!!!!!!

Of course, I also had my picture made with Tony G & Wanda, from Larry's work--Tony is HER favorite player!!!!!!!!! Will Shields came in later, but wasn't quite as friendly that night--our Team was 0 - 2 at that time. THEN, as we were eating in the BIG Ball room, JARED ALLEN came in & I went back & had my picture made with him, ALSO--he's a GIANT & SO NICE!!!!!!!!!--AND SOBER, which is GREAT for him!!!!!!!!!--should HELP keep him OUT of 'trouble'!!!!!

Anyway, when we were all still standing out in the hallway & about halfway through ALL the picture taking, a smallish man came up to me & said: "They've asked that YOU don't make ANY MORE pictures"--well, since folks were STILL making pictures, I didn't pay ANY attention to him & made some more, just of Tony STANDING THERE, by himself--AND, the man CAME UP TO ME--no one else that I ever saw--and SAID THE SAME THING, AGAIN--THAT TIME I asked him: "JUST WHO ARE YOU?" And, he said he was WITH the Charity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, obviously, my POINT IS THIS: IT DIDN'T MATTER WHAT HE WAS SAYING, BECAUSE HE HAD NO AUTHORITY OVER ANYONE/ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And, I was not getting in ANYONE'S WAY--I never did figure out WHY he ONLY approached me with that statement!!!!!

BUT, AS WE ALSO ALL KNOW--IT TOTALLY MATTERS WHAT GOD SAID/SAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ALWAYS HAS, ALWAYS WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO, as I learned, AGAIN, that night--IT MATTER "WHO" is SAYING "WHAT"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That small man was TRYING to assert his authority over me, but ONLY GOD HAS AUTHORITY OVER ME--AND ALL OF US, FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a VERY GOOD 'thing' to be REMINDED OF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't been able to get this night/happening out of my mine, so I just HAD to pass it on!!!!
MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL, MamaRose
