FUNNY ISN'T IT?
Funny how a $10 bill looks so big
when you take it to church,
but so small when you take it to the market.
Funny how long it takes to serve God for an hour,
but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of
basketball.
Funny how long are a couple of hours spent at
church 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 minute.
Funny how much difficulty some people have
learning a simple gospel well enough to tell
others, but how simple it is for the same people
to understand and repeat gossip about someone.
Funny how we believe what the newspapers say,
but question what the Bible says.
Funny, how everyone wants to go to heaven,
provided they don't have to believe,
or to think, or to say, or to do anything.
Funny, isn't it?
