Thought for Today: Sunday April 06
Think of it this way today: A glove is formed in the image of the hand. When the hand is inside the glove, it serves a purpose. Without the hand, the glove is nothing. The same is with us humans – We are formed in the image of YHVH. When YHVH is in us, we serve a purpose but without YHVH, we are nothing, useless – only fit to be in the furnace.
The preacher was wired for sound with a lapel mike, and as he preached, he moved briskly about the platform, jerking the mike cord as he went. Then he moved to one side, getting wound up in the cord and nearly tripping before jerking it again. After several circles and jerks, a little girl in the third pew leaned toward her mother and whispered, "If he gets loose, will he hurt us?"
It was a cold winter day, when an old man walked out onto a frozen lake, cut a hole in the ice, dropped in his fishing line and began waiting for a fish to bite.
He was there for almost an hour without even a nibble when a young boy walked out onto the ice, cut a hole in the ice not to far from the old man and dropped in his fishing line.
It only took about a minute and WHAM! a Largemouth Bass hit his hook and the boy pulled in the fish. The old man couldn't believe it but figured it was just luck.
But, the boy dropped in his line and again within just a few minutes pulled in another one. This went on and on until finally the old man couldn't take it any more since he hadn't caught a thing all this time.
He went to the boy and said, "Son, I've been here for over an hour without even a nibble. You have been here only a few minutes and have caught about half a dozen fish! How do you do it?" The boy responded, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm." "What was that?" the old man asked.
Again the boy responded, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rarrm." "Look," said the old man, "I can't understand a word you are saying." So, the boy spit a glob into his hand and said,
"You have to keep the worms warm!"
An elderly gentleman had serious hearing
problems for a number of years.
He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to
have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that
allowed the gentleman to hear 100%. The elderly
gentleman went back in a month to the doctor
and the doctor said, "your hearing is perfect.
Your family must be really pleased you can hear
again."
To which the gentleman said, "Oh, I haven't told
my family yet. I just sit around and listen to
the conversations. I've changed my will three
times!"
