Funny how long it takes to serve God for an hour, but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of footy.
Funny how we can't think of anything when we pray, but don't have difficulty thinking of things when we talk with a friend.
Funny how hard it is to read a chapter of the Bible, but how easy it is to read a best selling novel.
Funny how hard it is for people to learn a short Gospel verse, but how simple it is for the same people to repeat gossip.
Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says."
