If we keep looking behind us at the things we did wrong, we won't see the chances ahead of us to do some things right.

As I left the grocery store, I noticed two little kids, maybe six or seven years old, selling candy bars in
front of the store to raise money for their school band.
"I'll buy a chocolate bar on one condition," I said to the boys. "You eat it for me."
I bought one and handed the candy back to one of the boys.
He shook his head. "I can't," he said.
"Why not?"
Looking me in the eye, he responded gravely,
"I'm not supposed to take candy from strangers."

Priest and Pastor
A priest and pastor from the local parishes were standing by the side of the road holding up a sign that read, "The End is Near! Turn yourself around now before it's too late!"
They planned to hold up the sign to each passing car. As the first driver sped past, he yelled, "Leave us alone...we don't believe in that religious stuff!"
From around the curve they heard screeching tires and a big splash. One clergyman said to the other, "Do you think we should just put up a sign that says, 'Bridge Out' instead?"

A father is in church with three of his young children, including his five year old daughter.
As was customary, he sat in the very front row so that the children could properly witness the service.
During this particular service, the minister was performing the baptism of a tiny infant. The little five
year old girl was taken by this, observing that he was saying something and pouring water over
the infant's head.
With a quizzical look on her face, the little girl turned to her father and asked,
"Daddy, why is he brainwashing that baby?"
Thanks Darlene,
God loves you,
