Wondrous and Wacky
Words of Encouragement
Words of Encouragement
First,
the wondrous words:
From the wall of a friend:
“And so in only five days,
THE LORD delivered more greatly
than the entire year that had come before.”
Sounded like a Bible passage to me,
but I couldn’t recall such a statement
or recognize the context, so I asked.
My friend explained that
God blessed his family in the mist of a trial,
providing incredible results in only five days
after a year of frustrating struggle.
Whenever my friend and his family
need encouragement, they read these words
mounted high upon the wall above the breakfast table.
And now,
the wacky:
Studies show,
that if you learn a new word each day,
by the end of the year,
you’ll know one, two, ...
Easily more than seven words.
Easily more than eight if it’s a leap year!
So then, ...
No matter what fiascos you face,
you needn’t worry,
because they now make ...
Snuggies for pets.
If they can make a blanket with sleeves
for cats, dogs, and parakeets,
they can do anything!
Well, almost anything.
They call them Snuggies for pets,
but they don’t work so well with goldfish.
Or boa constrictors.
Or even Sea Monkeys.

you won’t know it.

Mary was having a tough day
and had stretched herself out on the couch
to do a bit of what she thought to be
well-deserved complaining and self-pitying.
She moaned to her mom and brother,
"Nobody loves me. The whole world hates me!"
Her brother, busily occupied playing a game,
hardly looked up at her
and passed on this encouraging word:
"That's not true, Mary.
Lots of people don't even know you."
Jerry Seinfeld:
It's amazing that the amount of news
that happens in the world every day
just exactly fits in the newspaper.
Steven Wright:
I intend to live forever.
So far, so good.
