IT'S STRANGE, ISN'T IT?
Isn't it strange how a 20 dollar bill seems like such a large
amount when you donate it to church, but
such a small amount when you go shopping?
Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when
you're at church, and how short they seem when you're
watching a good movie?
Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say when
you're praying, but you have no trouble
thinking what to talk about with a friend?
Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is to read
one chapter of the Bible, but how easy
it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel or ZANE GREY book?
Isn't it strange how everyone
wants front-row-tickets to concerts or
games, but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last
row in Church?
Isn't it strange how we need to
know about an event for Church 2-3
weeks before the day so we can include it in our agenda, but we can
adjust it for other events in the last minute?
Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it
with others, but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?
Isn't it strange how we believe everything
that magazines and newspapers say, but we question the words in the Bible?
Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in heaven, but they don't want
to believe, do, or say anything to get there?
Isn't it strange how we send jokes in e-mails
and they are forwarded right away,
but when we are going to send messages about God, we think
about it twice before we share it with others?
