Think about it

Pretty Deep..............Think About It!
A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, " Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like."
The Lord led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the
middle of the room was a large round table.
In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth
water.
The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were
hold ing spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach
into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than their arms, they could
not get the spoons back into their mouths.
The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.
The Lord said, " You have seen Hell."
They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There
was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were
equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing
and talking.
The holy man said, " I don't understand."
" It is simple" said the Lord, " it requires but one skill. You see, they have learned to feed each other,
while the greedy think only of themselves."
When Jesus died on t he cross he was thinking of you!

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!
