sharing the snicks onct again
Our pastor asked if anyone in the
congregation would like to express praise for answered prayers. A lady in our
congregation stood and walked to the podium. 'I have a praise,' she
said. 'Two months ago, my husband, Jim, had a terrible bicycle wreck,
and his scrotum was completely crushed. The pain was excruciating, and
the doctors didn't know if they could help him.' You could hear an audible gasp from the men in the
congregation as they imagined the pain that poor Jim experienced.
She continued, 'Jim was unable to hold me or the children, and
every move caused him terrible pain. We prayed as the doctors performed
a delicate operation. They were able to piece together the crushed
remnants and wrap wire around his scrotum to hold it in.'
Again, the men in the congregation squirmed uncomfortably as they
imagined the horrible surgery performed on Jim. She continued, 'Now, Jim is out of the hospital and
the doctors say, with time, his scrotum should recover completely.'
All the men sighed with relief. Our pastor
rose and tentatively asked if anyone else had anything to say.
A man rose and walked to the
podium. 'I'm Jim,' he said, 'and I just want to tell my
wife, the word is sternum.'
