Too Busy to Pray

I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work, for bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, and jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done, my soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time, to spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of Christ to friends, they’d laugh at me I’d fear.

No time, no time, too much to do, that was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need but at last the time to die.

I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book; It was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said “Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down… But never found the time.”

A farmer came into town and asked the owner of a restaurant if he could use a million frog legs. The restaurant owner was shocked and asked the
man where he could get so many frog legs!

The farmer replied, “There is a pond near my house that is full of frogs–millions of them. They croak all during the night and are about to drive me crazy!”

So the restaurant owner and the farmer made an agreement that the farmer would deliver frogs to the restaurant five hundred at a time for the next several
weeks.

The first week, the farmer returned to the restaurant looking rather sheepish, with two scrawny little frogs. The restaurant owner said, “Well…where
are all the frogs?”

The farmer said, “I was mistaken. There were only these two frogs in the pond. But they sure were making a lot of noise!”

Next time you hear somebody criticizing or making fun of you, remember it’s probably just a couple of noisy frogs. Also–remember that problems always seem bigger in the dark. Have you ever lain in your bed at might worrying about things which seem almost overwhelming–like a million frogs croaking? Chances are pretty good that when the morning comes, and you take a closer look, you’ll wonder what all the fuss was about.

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance – particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 un-installed many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, and then installed undesirable programs such as NFL 5.0, NBA 3.0. and Golf Clubs 4.1.

Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. I’ve tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail.

What can I do?

Signed,
Desperate

Dear Desperate:

First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package,
while Husband 1.0 is an Operating System. Please go to the site: “http://IThoughtYouLoved Me.com” and download Tears 6.2. And don’t forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update.

If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5. But remember, over use of the above application can cause Husband1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0, or Beer 6.1. Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta.

Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background, that will eventually seize control of all your system resources).

Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Hot Food 3.0 and Lingerie 7.7.

Good Luck,
Tech Support

He Loves.
He made.
We sinned.
He came.
He died.
He lives.
He paid.
We’re forgiven.
It’s free.
No strings.
Spread the word so they can choose, death or Jesus.
Do it to say thank you, not to get points.
He’s coming back to pick us up.
Until He does, talk to Him and stick together.
Be nice. Don’t fight.
Laugh together.
Cry together.
Help each other.
Try not to hurt each other.
When you do hurt each other, be sorry.
When you do get hurt, forgive.
Keep getting better at both.
Look for stuff that’s good.
It’ll help pass the time ’til He gets here.
Meantime…
try to be more like Him.
Wait.
And while you’re waiting…
Love.
