Father, help me to bury and forget all bitter and unkind thoughts. Stay by my side and
guide me all this day. AMEN

A Point to ponder....
A hug is a perfect gift... one size fits all and nobody minds if you give it back.

 

THE PEW

Once upon a pew I sat
And heard the preacher ask,
"We need someone to teach a class,
Now who will take this task?"

Then God sat down beside me there
And said, "Son, that's for you."
But, Lord, to stand before a class
is one thing I can't do.

Now Rev. Forbes would be the man to
call, There's nothing he won't do.
I'd rather hear the lesson
taught From here upon my pew.

Once upon a pew I sat
And heard the preacher ask,
"We need someone to lead the songs,
Now who will take this task?"

Then God sat down beside me there
And said, "Son, that's for you."
But Lord, to sing before a crowd
Is one thing I can't do.

Now Brother Jenkins will do the job,
There's nothing he won't do.
I'd rather hear the music played
From here upon my pew.

Once upon a pew I sat
And heard the preacher ask,
"I need some one to keep the door,
Now who will take the task?"

Then God sat down beside me there
And said, "Son, that's for you."
Saying things to strangers, Lord,
Is one thing I can't do.

Now Brother Neal can talk to people, Lord,
There's nothing he won't do
I'd rather someone come to me
And greet me on the pew.

As years just seemed to pass me by,
I heard that voice no more.
Until one night I closed my eyes
And woke on heaven's shore.

There was four of us together there
To face eternity.
God said, "I need just three of you
To do a job for me."

"O Lord," I cried, "I'll do the job,
There's nothing I won't do."
But Jesus said, "I'm sorry, Friend,
In heaven there is no pew."

Father, Don't let me be a pew sitter,
Life without You, would be very bitter.
So please get me off that pew,
I don't want to push up daisies without YOU.

Amen
