Things Got You Down?


Well Then, Consider These true stories . . .


..............................


In a hospital's Intensive Care Unit, patients always died


in the same bed, on Sunday morning, at about 11:00 a.m.,


regardless of their medical condition.





This puzzled the doctors and some even thought it had


something to do with the supernatural. No one could solve


the mystery as to why the deaths occurred around 11:00 a.m.


Sunday, so a worldwide team of experts was assembled to


investigate the cause of the incidents.





The next Sunday morning, a few minutes before 11:00 am


all of the doctors and nurses nervously waited outside


the ward to see for themselves what the terrible phenomenon


was all about. Some were holding wooden crosses, prayer books,


and other holy objects to ward off the evil spirits.





Just when the clock struck 11:00, Willie Johnson, the part-time


Sunday sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support


system so he could use the vacuum cleaner.

Still Having a Bad Day????





The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the


Exxon Valdez Oil spill in Alaska was $80,000.00.


At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively


saved animals were being released back into the wild


amid cheers and applause from onlookers.





A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.


.............................


Still think you are having a Bad Day????


A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen


shaking frantically, almost in a dancing frenzy,


with some kind of wire running from his waist towards


the electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from


the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy


plank of wood, breaking his arm in two places.





Up to that moment, he had been happily listening


to his Walkman.





.............................


Are Ya OK Now? - No?


Two animal rights defenders were protesting


the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse


in Bonn , Germany . Suddenly, all two thousand pigs


broke loose and escaped through a broken fence,


stampeding madly.





The two helpless protesters were trampled to death.





.............................





What?!? STILL having a Bad Day????


Iraqi terrorist Khay Rahnajet didn't pay enough postage on a


letter bomb. It came back with 'Return to Sender' stamped on it.


Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.





God is Good!

There now, Feeling Better????

[evie]

No I'm not feeling better!
I'm pretty sure God didn't want to blow up the Iraqi either! Jesus said love your enemies. Yes I am glad the letter didn't reach its target but I'd be even more happy if the sender had fell at Jesus feet and been saved. Its all rather sad, Yes God is good and he is also willing to forgive the terroist.

"We reap what we sow"..................
"God" didn't do anything to the Iraqi...he did it to himself..........

We have a free will to do that.......

Hi Southernbelle,
sorry I wasn't aiming at criticising - just that the last part made me sad at the state of futile wars. I know we do definitely reap what we sow and yes indeed only by the grace of our Lord are we forgiven for all the past. Its not a nice world out there sometimes eh?
By the way I do gain a lot from your posts, thank you...

Evie.......
Thank God that this world is NOT our home...
Sometimes I get "homesick" for the true home we have waiting for us if we know The Lord.....but.......I have to believe that there is a purpose for me and you and everybody, to complete and it keeps me going until the end of this life.

BB........."The Son WILL come up tomorrow"!!!!!!!!! Turn your pretty face toward Him and let Him warm you and hold you.
