"Things that make you go hmmmm"



There are lots of things in North Carolina that make us go "hmmm..." I'd like to share with you this morning's "hmmmm...".

I was driving to work and listening to some random radio station that did NOT happen to be a Christian radio station. In between songs some church has a commercial slot where they share "wisdom and encouragement" with listeners. Today's went something like this (with soft piano music in the background): "Naomi thought God wanted a change in her life so she quit her job and started taking classes, reading her Bible and praying all day long. After a while she was discouraged because she wasn't sure what God wanted her to do with her life. Then her friend, a new believer, had a conversation with her and gave her this amazing piece of wisdom, 'Naomi, be patient. A pickle don't get made in a day.'"

That was it. Then the next song came on.

Slow down - I've got to preach next Sunday and I'm writing this down.

Pickles. Got it.
