Isn’t It Strange…


Isn't it strange 
how a 20 dollar bill seems like such a large amount when you donate it to church, 
but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn't it strange 
how 2 hours seem so long when you're at church, 
and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie?

Isn't it strange 
that you can't find a word to say when you're praying but.. 
you have no trouble thinking what to talk about with a friend?

Isn't it strange 
how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bible but 
how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel?


Isn't it strange 
how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games but 
they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in Church?


Isn't it strange 
how we need to know about an event for Church 2-3 weeks 
before the day so we can include it in our agenda, 
but we can adjust it for other events in the last minute?


Isn't it strange 
how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others; 
but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?

Isn't it strange 
how we believe everything that magazines and newspapers say but....
we question the words in the Bible?


Isn't it strange 
how everyone wants a place in heaven but... 
they don't want to believe, do, or say anything to get there?


Isn't it strange 
how we send jokes in e-mails and they are forwarded right away but 
when we are going to send messages about God, 
we think about it twice before we share it with others?
