Today's Chuckles
1. Telling Stories
2. Leanin’ Side
———————————————
Telling Stories
Delivering a speech at a banquet on the night of his
arrival in a large city, a visiting minister told
several anecdotes he expected to repeat at meetings
the next day.
Because he wanted to use the jokes again, he requested
the reporters to omit them from any accounts they might
turn in to their newspapers.
A cub reporter, in commenting on the speech, ended his
piece with the following: "The minister told a number
of stories that cannot be published."

him who prays. - Soren Kierkegaard

Leanin’ Side
Every time I am asked to pray, I think of the old fellow
who always prayed, "Lord, prop us up on our leanin' side."
After hearing him pray that prayer many times, someone
asked him why he prayed that prayer so fervently.
He answered, "Well sir, you see, it's like this...I got
an old barn out back. It's been there a long time; it's
withstood a lot of weather; it's gone through a lot of
storms, and it's stood for many years. It's still standing.
But one day I noticed it was leaning to one side a bit.
So I went and got some pine poles and propped it up on its
leaning side so it wouldn't fall. Then I got to thinking
about that and how much I was like that old barn. I've
been around a long time. I've withstood a lot of life's
storms. I've withstood a lot of bad weather in life, I've
withstood a lot of hard times, and I'm still standing too.
But I find myself leaning to one side from time to time,
so I like to ask the Lord to prop us up on our leaning
side, 'cause I figure a lot of us get to leaning at
times. Sometimes we get to leaning toward anger, leaning
toward bitterness, leaning toward hatred, leaning toward
cussing, leaning toward a lot of things that we shouldn't.
So we need to pray, 'Lord, prop us up on our leanin' side,'
so we will stand straight and tall again, to glorify the
Lord."
