It's Funny How...

Topic(s): Priorities

  • ...a $100 bill “looks” so big when we take it to church, but so small when we take it to the mall.

  • ...long it takes to serve God for an hour, but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of basketball.

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

  • ...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.

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

  • ...hard it is to read a chapter in the Bible, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a best selling novel.

  • ...people want to get a front seat at any game or concert, but scramble to get a back seat at church services.

  • ...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.

  • ...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.

  • ...we believe what the newspaper says, but question what the Bible says.

  • ...everyone wants to go to heaven, provided they do not have to believe, or think, or say, or do anything.

  • ...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.
