~ Signs of Spring ~

"Spring shows what God can do with a drab and dirty world."
Virgil A. Kraft

The Laugh
A minister was making a wooden trellis to support a climbing vine. As he was pounding away, he noticed that a little boy was watching him. The youngster didn't say a word, so the preacher kept on working, thinking the lad would leave. But he didn't. Pleased at the thought that his work was being admired, the pastor finally said, "Well, son, trying to pick up some pointers on gardening?" "No," he replied. "I'm just waiting to hear what a preacher says when he hits his thumb with a hammer."

Thought for Today
"Jesus didn't just sit around saying, 'I sure wish something would happen.'" - Howard Hendricks
