The
preacher noticed little Billy was
staring up at the plaque that hung in
the foyer of the church.
It
was covered with names and small
American flags were mounted on either
side of it. The seven-year-old had
been staring at the plaque for some
time, so the preacher walked up, stood
beside the little boy, and said
quietly: "Good morning,
Billy."
"Good
morning, Preacher," replied the
young man, still focused on the
plaque. "Preacher, what is
this?"
"Well,
son, it's a memorial to all the young
men and women who died while in the
service."
Soberly,
they stood together, staring at the
plaque.
Little
Billy's voice was barely audible when
he asked: "Which service, the
9:45 or the 11:00?"

Subject:
Airline solution
Federal
Aviation Agency
800 Independence Avenue S.W.
Washington D.C. 20591
Dear
Sirs;
I
have the solution for the prevention
of hijackings, and at the same time
getting our airline industry back on
its feet.
Since
men of the Muslim religion are not
allowed to look at naked women we
should replace all of our female
flight attendants with strippers.
Muslims
would be afraid to get on the planes
for fear of seeing a naked woman, and
of course, everyone in this country
would start flying again in hope of
seeing a naked woman. We would have no
more hijackings, and the airline
industry would have record sales.
Now
why didn't Congress think of this?
Sincerely,
Bill
Clinton

There
was a group of women in a Bible study
on the book of Malachi.
As
they were studying Chapter Three, they
came across Verse Three which says:
"He will sit as a refiner and
purifier of silver". This verse
puzzled the women and they wondered
what this statement meant about the
character and nature of God. One of
the women offered to find out about
the process of refining silver and get
back to the group at their next Bible
study.
That
week this woman called up a
silversmith and made an appointment to
watch him at work. She didn't mention
anything about the reason for her
interest in silver beyond her
curiosity about the process of
refining silver. As she watched the
silver smith, he held a piece of
silver over the fire and let it heat
up. He explained that in refining
silver, one needed to hold the silver
in the middle of the fire where the
flames were hottest so as to burn away
all the impurities.
The
woman thought about God holding us in
such a hot spot then she thought again
about the verse, that says, "He
sits as a refiner and purifier of
silver". She asked the
silversmith if it was true that he had
to sit there in front of the fire the
whole time the silver was being
refined. The man answered that yes, he
not only had to sit there holding the
silver, but he had to keep his eyes on
the silver the entire time it was in
the fire. For if the silver was left
even a moment too long in the flames,
it would be destroyed.
The
woman was silent for a moment. Then
she asked the silver smith, how do you
know when the silver is fully refined?
He smiled at her and answered,
"Oh, that's the easy part--when I
see my image reflected in it."
If
today you are feeling the heat of the
fire, remember that God has His eye on
you and will keep His hand on you and
watch over you until He sees His image
in you.
Be
Blessed & Be a Blessing !!!!!
