THE MIRACULOUS WAY
The pastor goes to the session meeting, and the elders say, “Pastor we have big troubles. The roof needs to be replaced, the foundation is cracked, and our people don’t have any money. What are we going to do?” “Well”, the pastor replies, “we can handle these problems the regular way, or the miraculous way.” “Okay”, say the elders, “what’s the regular way?” “Well, we get on our knees and pray to God. God sends an army of angels, and they fix the roof, the foundation and give our people generous hearts.” “That’s the regular way? Then what’s the miraculous way?” “That we think about it and come up with a plan to solve these problems ourselves.”
