************** FUNNY CHURCH STORY **************

HAVEYOU FOUND JESUS YET? –Author unknown-   The local church was having an Old Fashion Baptism at the Rivers edge when a drunk man came walking along and stumbled into the river. The preacher swam over to the drunk man, grabbed him and dunked him under the water. When he brought him back up the preacher asked the drunk man, "Have you found Jesus yet?" The man said "no." Then the preacher dunked him under the water again. When he brought the drunk man back up the preacher asked the drunk man "Have you found Jesus yet?" The drunk man said "no." Then the preacher dunked the drunk man under the water again. When the preacher brought the drunk man back up, the preacher asked the drunk man again, "Have you found Jesus yet?" The drunk man replied, "Are you sure this is were he fell in?"

************** Inspirational Story **************

GOD’S COFFEE. –Author unknown-  A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite -- telling them to help themselves to the coffee.  When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other's cups."  "Now consider this," he continued... "Life is the coffee. The jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."  God brews the coffee, not the cups... Enjoy your coffee! " The happiest people don't have the best of everything.  They just make the best of everything they have."  Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.  Speak kindly... and leave the rest to God.

"We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give."
-Winston Churchill-
