Gramps’ Wisdom – Humor Unplugged
Thank you for joining us for our five days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 992 of our trek, and it is time for our 3-minute mini-trek called Humor Unplugged. Our Thursday podcast will provide a short and clean funny story to help you lighten up and live a rich and satisfying life – something to cheer you and provide a bit a levity in your life.
We are told in Proverbs 15:30, “A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health.” We are also encouraged in Proverbs 17:22, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.” Consider this your vitamin supplement of cheer for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s funny, which is titled…
Gramps’ Wisdom
Little Susie was sitting on Gramps’ lap as he read her a bedtime story from the Bible about God’s creation. From time to time, she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek. At the same time, she would stroke her own cheek. Gramps loved little Susie and enjoyed their time together. Finally, Susie spoke up, “Gramps, did God make you?”
“Yes, sweetheart,” he answered, “God made me a long time ago.”
“Oh,” she paused, “Gramps, did God make me too?”
“Yes, indeed, honey,” he said, “God made you just a little while ago.”
Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, “God’s getting better at his creation isn’t he?”
Well, I hope that brought a smile to your face today. Our Thursday Thought is from Romans 8:20-22,“Against its will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse. But with eager hope, the creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay. For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.”
Just as you enjoy these nuggets of humor, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
