FUNNY ISN'T IT?

Funny how a RM 100 "looks" so big when you take it to church, but so small when you take it to the mall.

Funny how long it takes to serve God for an hour, but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of basketball.

Funny how we can't think of anything to say when we pray, but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend.

Funny how we get thrilled when a football game goes into extra innings, but we complain when a sermon is longer than the regular time.

Funny how people want to get a front seat in any game or concert, but scramble to get the back seat at church services.

Funny how hard it is to read a chapter in the Bible, but how easy it is to read a 100 pages of a best-selling novel.

Funny how we need 2 or 3 weeks advance notice to fit a church event into our schedule, but can adjust our schedule for other events at the last moment.

Funny how hard it is for people to learn a simple gospel well enough to tell others, but how simple it is for the same people to understand and repeat gossip.

Funny how we believe what the newspaper says, but question what the Bible says.

Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, or think, or say, or do anything.

Funny how you can send a thousand "jokes" through e-mail and they spread like wild fire, but when you start sending messages regarding Jesus Christ, people think twice about sharing.

Well, I got this from my RE Y3B2 book...but it does wake us up doesn't it?

Funny isn't it? Are you thinking? Are you laughing? Spread the Word and give thanks to God for He is good!! It's not WHAT you have in your life that counts, but WHO you have in your life.

~Emmanuel~
