Witness

A young girl is walking home from church on Sunday and says to her mother, “Mummy, didn’t you tell me that God was so big that the world can’t contain Him, that the earth is like His footstool, and that you can’t see the end of Him.” “That’s right,” said her mother. “Well, today we learned that God lives inside of me.” “That’s right too honey.”

“I’m confused. If God is so big that He can’t even fit in the world, and He also lives inside of me, shouldn’t people see Him coming out of me?” Salt is no good in a salt shaker. Salt is a minority in anything it occupies.

I’d rather see a sermon Than hear one any day; I’d rather one should walk with me Than merely tell the way. The eye’s a better pupil, More willing than the ear; Fine counsel is confusing, But example’s always clear.

And the best of all the preachers Are the men who live their creeds; For to see good put in action Is what everybody needs. Edgar A. Guest. Joe the derelict was saved, delivered from alcoholism, and so thankful that he’d do anything for the Lord, even menial tasks like cleaning, washing dishes, and mowing the lawn.

Then he met another derelict, took him home, cleaned him up, cleaned his vomit, and nursed him through the bad times. “I just want to be like Joe,” said the derelict to a church worker. “You mean you want to be like Jesus.” replied the worker. “Is He like Joe?” asked the derelict.

A man gave his life to the Lord and told his business partner. His partner was overjoyed and said, “That’s fantastic. I’m a Christian too.” The new Christian looked at him and said, “I didn’t know that.

You’re actually the main reason I didn’t become a Christian years ago. I thought that since you were such a good person without being a Christian, there was no reason for me to be one either.” I might have entered the ministry if certain clergymen I knew had not looked and acted so much like undertakers. Oliver Wendell Holmes Robert Louis Stevenson wrote in his diary, “I have been to church today, and am not depressed.”

Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip. Will Rogers A stressed out woman was tailgating a man as they drove along. As he slowed to stop at an amber light, she gestured angrily, swore and screamed, and blasted her horn. While she was thus engaged, she heard a tap on the window where a policeman stood.

He ordered her out of the car and she was promptly arrested, taken to the police station, and put in a holding cell. Sometime later, the policeman returned saying, “I’m sorry, Ma’am. When I pulled up behind you, I noticed your ‘What Would Jesus Do?’ and ‘Follow Me To Church’ bumper stickers, saw the way you behaved, and I figured your car must have been stolen.”
