HOLY CARP!!!
|
So this morning my wife was getting on my case about me gaining a pound or two. And I had naught to say. So we go to Sunday Go-To-Meeting (the Catholic version) and as we were sitting under the Witness Tree (again the Catholic version) the lector read the words of Holy Scripture from 1Kings 19:5 (they read a lot of other stuff, too, but this is the important part): And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. An angel does that to me, too. And it's hard to argue with an angel. |

Hey, that was handy! Do you get on her case about gaining weight, too? She might use the same verse. |

Unless the angel has cleverly disguised itself as the devil, quoting scripture for his own purposes.

Your wife might have put a different slant on those angelic words. She'll be waking you up to do stuff. |

Every morning the soul is once again as good as new, and again one offers it to one's brothers & sisters in life. | |
