Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on the computer.  They had been going at it for days, and God was tired of hearing all of the bickering.  Finally God said, "Enough. I am going to set up a test that will run two hours and I will judge who does the better job."So down Satan and Jesus sat at the keyboards and typed away. They moused. They faxed. They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports. They e-mailed. They e-mailed with attachments. They downloaded. They made cards. They did genealogy reports. They did every known job.But ten minutes before their time was up, lightening suddenly flashed across  the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, the electricity went  off.  Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed. The electricity finally flickered back on, and  [...]

1.... God won't ask what kind of car you drove. He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.2.. God won't ask the square footage of your house, He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home. 3... God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, He'll ask how many you helped to clothe. 4... God won't ask what your highest salary was. He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it. 5... God won't ask what your job title was. He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability. 6.. God won't ask how many friends you had. He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend. 7... God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, He'll ask how you treated your neighbors. 8.... God won't ask about the color of your skin, He'll ask about the content of your character. 9... God won't asked about the places you dined, He'll ask if you fed the poor.
10... God won't ask about the places you travelled, He'll [...]

One day, a man went to visit a church, He got there early, parked hiscar and got out. Another car pulled up near the driver got out and said,“I always park there! You took my place!"The visitor went inside for Sunday school, found an empty seat and satdown A young lady from the church approached him and stated, "That’smy seat! You took my place!" The visitor was somewhat distressed by thisrude welcome, but said nothing.After Sunday School, the visitor went into the sanctuary and sat down.Another member walked up to him and said, "That's where I always sit!You took my place!" The visitor was even more troubled by thistreatment, but still He said nothing.Later as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them,the visitor stood up, and his appearance began to change. Horrible scarsbecame visible on his hands and on his sandaled feet. Someone from thecongregation noticed him and called out, "What happened to you?" Thevisitor replied, as his hat became a crown of thorns, [...]

Three TreesFriends, I have read this email a number of times and it gets me every time...I read it over and over again...perhaps because I can relate to plans not going the way I thought that they should. Please enjoy...and remember, God IS in control, surrender your life to Him--not just sing about it, but do it.... and see what He shapes our lives into for His glory...Amen?  After all, the song says "I Surrender ALL," not some...Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams whenThe first tree said, 'Someday I hope to be a great treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silverand precious gems. I could be decorated with an intricate carving and everyone would see the beauty.'Then the second tree said, 'Someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take Kings and Queens across thewaters and sail to the corners of the world. People will feel safe in me because of the strength of myhull.'Finally the third tree said, 'I want to [...]

THE BOYS ARE BACK--the title of the latest project from The Oak Ridge Boys captures it all..."like four strong winds blowing through a ramshackle shack, " the lyrics say and that's exactly how the boys started the show--they filed in one after the other and took their respective quartet positions on stage (Richard, William, Duane and Joe). It wasn't long, though, before Joe was hopping all over the stage igniting the audience and swinging the microphone stand around like a ragdoll--with enough energy to make this 'young' observer tired and out of breath! Not to mention, the powerhouse lyrics were also just as breathtaking...songs like "Hold You In My Arms," "Mama's Table" and "Beautiful Bluebird" journeyed us upward and onward from yesteryear ahead to our bright future. The audience was then lulled to a grateful heart by William's, "Thank God For Kids." But, Richard was not about to let the audience relax for long--for those who remember the earlier hits of the Oaks ("Elvira" and "Bobbie [...]
