Funny How...

~~~~~~~~

 

Funny how a $10 bill looks so big when you take it to church,

but so small when you take it to the mall.

 

Funny how long a couple of hours spent at church are,

but how short they are when watching a good movie.

 

Funny how we get thrilled when a baseball game goes into overtime,

but we complain when a sermon is longer than the regular time.

 

Funny how laborious it is to read a chapter in the Bible,

but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a best selling novel.

 

Funny how we believe what the newspaper say,

but question what the Bible says.

 

Funny how we look forward to that big date on Saturday night,

but complain about getting up for church on Sunday morning.

 

Funny how we called God, our father and Jesus, our brother,

but find it hard to introduce them to our family.

 

Funny how we demand justice for others,

but expect mercy from God.

 

Funny how much difficulty some have learning the gospel well enough to tell others,

but how simple it is to understand and explain the latest gossip about someone.

 

Funny how we are so quick to take directions from a total stranger when we are lost,

but are hestitant to take God's direction for our lives.

 

Funny how it is okay to blame God for evil and sufferings in the world,

but it's not necessary to thank Him for what is good and pleasant.

 

Funny how when something goes wrong, we cry,"Lord, why me?"

but when something goes right, we think, "Hey, it must be me!"

 

Funny how we can't think of anything to say when we pray,

but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk to a friend.

 

Funny how people want to get a front seat at any game or concert

but scramble to get a back seat at church services.

 

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 you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail

and they spread like wildfire,

but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord,

people think twice about sharing.

 

FUNNY, ISN'T IT ?

Are you laughing? Are you thinking?

Spread the Word

and give thanks to the Lord for He is good!
