| A Note From The Pastor |
Dear Friends,
This is so funny I just have to share it with you. It came via email from a good friend, and I laughed so hard it brought tears:
“It's been fun being a baby boomer . . . until now. Some of the artists of the '50's and' 60s are revising their hits with new lyrics to accommodate aging baby boomers. They include:
1. Herman's Hermits -- Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Walker.
2. The Bee Gees -- How Can You Mend a Broken Hip.
3. Bobby Darin -- Splish, Splash, I Was Havin' a Flash.
4. Ringo Starr -- I Get By With a Little Help From Depends.
5. Roberta Flack -- The First Time Ever I Forgot Your Face.
6. Johnny Nash -- I Can't See Clearly Now.
7. Paul Simon --
8. The Commodores -- Once, Twice, Three Times to the Bathroom.
9. Marvin Gaye -- Heard It Through the Grape Nuts.
10. Procol Harem -- A Whiter Shade Of Hair.
11. Leo Sayer -- You Make Me Feel Like Napping.
12. The Temptations -- Papa's Got a Kidney Stone.
13. Abba -- Denture Queen.
14. Tony Orlando -- Knock 3 Times On The Ceiling If You Hear Me Fall.
15. Helen Reddy -- I Am Woman, Hear Me Snore.
16. Leslie Gore -- It's My Procedure, and I'll Cry If I Want To.
17. Willie Nelson -- On the Commode Again.
I told you it was funny. It feels so good to laugh, and everyone needs a good belly role now and then. Wisdom from Proverbs tells us laughter is like a medicine, a happy heart makes the face cheerful, and a cheerful look brings joy to the heart. The psalmist writes, “Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy.” How about reflecting on the follow words, what do they say to you?: cheerful, joy, joyful, joyous, happiness, laughter, ecstatic, all smiles…. Let me encourage you to have a good laugh. Share this to others and laugh with them. Let joy flow from your heart, and tears from your eyes.
Be Blessed! (Blessed as used in the Sermon on the mount means “Supreme happiness of the highest kind.)
