UNLIKED SHORT CUMMINGS
There was a large family by the name of Cummings who were members of a certain church. One Sunday the preacher really let loose a scorcher on sin. He talked about our failures and pride and short-comings. That day after Church the youngest boy moped around the house. Mom and Dad finally asked him what was wrong. He said, “The preacher doesn’t like me anymore.” Mom and Dad asked him where he got such an idea? He said, “Well, he kept talking about how bad our shortcomings are and I’m the only Short Cummings in the Church. So I s’pose he doesn’t like me any more.”
