Good Humor
I think God has a very good sense of humor. God works in a 'funny' and effective way. At times, we may think that what we are doing seems pointless and others may be doubtful...like how I am feeling now with my work...definitely dont think I am sitting here for myself...but at least my heart wishes it is God's will I am here...but God always make the turnover when the time is right. Dont think I am waiting for something great to happen or to do super wondrous things for Him, cause everyday is a challenge just to be righteous in His ways. I need to get that Right. We just need to prepare ourselves I guess.
Here is a real story...you will know what I mean when I say God has a good humor ;-)..and I love to laugh side by side with God :-) . Everything is possible in Him.
In 1903 in a small Ohio town, Milton Wright, a minister in the Church of Christ, was looking for an appropriate sermon topic. He found his theme in a very unlikely place—a U.S. Patent Office report on the future. The report said that everything that could conceivably be invented had already been discovered. There are strict limits to human ingenuity, the report argued, and no major advances were likely to occur in the twentieth century.
Wright delivered a sermon based on that notion. At the end, a young man raised his hand and said, "You know something, sir, I believe that one day people will fly."
"Fly?" responded Minister Wright, "If God wanted us to fly, He would have given us wings; He would have made us angels; He would have made us birds. Let me assure you, you will not see people fly." The young man, however, got the last laugh. Three months later, Wright’s two sons, Orville and Wilbur, flew the first airplane, from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
