Sunday's Sermon was - Forgive Your Enemies
Toward the end of the services, the Minister asked the congregation,
"How many of you have forgiven your enemies?" 80% held up their hands.
The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time,
except one small elderly lady. "Mrs. Jones? Are you not willing to forgive your
enemies?"
"I don't have any." She replied, smiling sweetly.
"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
"Ninety-eight." she replied.
"Oh Mrs. Jones, would you please come down in front & tell us all how
a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?"
The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the
congregation, and said: "I outlived the bitches."
