04/17/10 Weekend Grif.Net - Isn't It Strange?

[Dr. Bob]

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,
but 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?

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 at the last minute?

Isn't it strange . . . how difficult it is to learn a fact about God or 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?
