“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

A guy bought a new fridge. He put the old one in his front yard with a sign: “Free to good home – you want it, you take it.”
For three days the fridge just sat there. So he changed the sign to read: “Fridge for sale $50”.
The next day someone stole it.

The other answers, “No, but I wanted to.”

The Sunday School teacher was describing how Lot’s wife looked back and turned into a pillar of salt.
Little Johnny interrupted, “My dad looked back once, while he was driving,” he announced triumphantly, “and he turned into a telephone pole!”

I submitted ten puns to a contest, hoping one might win the prize, but no pun in ten did.

Isaiah 43:7 says, “Bring to me all the people who are mine, whom I made for my glory, whom I formed and made” (NCV).
If you didn’t bring glory to God, you wouldn’t be alive. God made you to enjoy you!
Only One Black Friday
There was only one Black Friday.
It was not the day after Thanksgiving.
It was not a day when self-oriented consumers
bumped into
climbed over
pushed into
screamed at
and hated the other consumers who were
in their way.
No, all the action of the one Black Friday
was on a hill of death
outside the city
where three souls hung on crosses,
two criminals and the Messiah
doing what he came to do
and what the world was desperate for.
That Friday the world went dark
the Father turned his back
graves opened
the veil ripped in two
the Son carried the Father’s anger.
Death was offered so life could be given.
Darkness fell so light would shine.
Payment made
freedom given
redemption accomplished.
There was only one Black Friday.
No need to shop anymore for a
Savior.

Lawyerese
The Wall Street Journal recently quoted the following comment by Robert H. Mundheim, general counsel of the U.S. Treasury Department.
“When an ordinary man wants to give an orange to another, he would merely say, ‘I give you this orange.’ But when a lawyer does it, he says it in this way:
‘Know all men by these presents that I hereby give, grant, bargain, sell, release, convey, transfer, and quitclaim all my right, title, interest, benefit, and use whatever in, of and concerning this chattel, otherwise known as an orange or citrus orantium, together with all the appurtenances thereto of skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds, and juice, to have and to hold the said orange together with its skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds, and juice for his own use and behoove, to himself and his heirs in fee simple forever, free from a liens, encumbrances, easements, limitations, restraints, or conditions whatsoever, any and all prior deeds, transfers or other documents whatsoever, not or anywhere made to the contrary notwithstanding, with full power to bite, cut, suck, or otherwise eat the said orange or give away the same, with or without its skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds or juice.’

“Look out for the good of others” (1 Corinthians 10:24b NCV).
Kindness always begins with the eyes — the way you observe the world and are sensitive to the needs of other people.
