Funny Thing...

Funny how a $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 long a couple of hours spent at church are,
but how short they are when watching a movie.

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 baseball game goes into extra
innings,
but we complain when a sermon is longer than the regular time.

Funny how hard 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 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 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 newspapers say,
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 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?

Funny isn't it, when you go to forward this message, how many on
your list are not receiving it because you're not sure they," believe in anything?"
Spread the Word and give thanks to the Lord for He is good!!!
