BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU DO!

TRINITY CHRISTIAN CENTER CHURCH MISSIVE

Vol. 7:–No: 31(October 30, 2016)

Philippians 4:13-“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU DO!!

Be careful of what you do and say for it may come back to haunt you.

Leroy Brownlow wrote a book in 1969 entitled A Time To Laugh or Grandpa Was A Preacher.

He tells of one time when Grandpa warned that you should be careful about doing things without the consent of interested parties. This is seen in the drama in which some local jesters decided to out-banter him.

One night, they dragged a dead mule onto the parsonage lawn and left it. Bright and early the next morning, they gathered with others in a little store and telephoned him. The spokesman said, “Pastor, I believe it is the duty of you ministers to take care of the dead, and I noticed a dead mule in your yard. Are you going to bury him?”

“Yes, if you’ll give your consent,” replied the parson.

“Why do I have to give my consent?” inquired the joker.

“Because I have to have the consent of the closest relative,” insisted Grandpa.
