3/4– Start Your Day Off Right Series
Quote:
3/4–In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.
Story:
3/4–Broken Heart
I heard a story about a man who invited his neighbor to attend church with him. On the way home, the neighbor said, “I noticed you have a new preacher.” “Yes,” said his friend, “We fired the old one. He was always telling us unless we repented, we were going to hell.”
“But,” the neighbor replied, “your new preacher said the very same thing this morning.” “True,” was the reply, “but our old preacher acted like he was happy about the situation. When our new preacher says this, it seems to break his heart.”
Scripture:
Ephesians 4:15-16
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
Humor:
3/4–Our happy little fox terrier, Cookie, had a game all her own. Every time we climbed into our car, she took a head start to race us to the bottom of the hill. Down the driveway she would scoot, across our near-neighbor’s lawn, down the hill, across a basketball court, through a little gate, around our new neighbor’s house, and through her front hedge just in time to grin at us as we caught up a half block from home. Our new neighbor down the hill, upon meeting us for the first time recently, remarked, “We always know when you folks are going somewhere.” “How can you tell?” I asked. “Well,” she said, “it’s strange, but always just before you drive past our house, our cat climbs a tree.”
