What is that?

A nurse on the pediatric ward, before listening to the little ones chests, would plug the stethoscope into their ears and let them listen to their own hearts. Their eyes would always light up with awe, but she never got a response equal to four-year old David's comment. Gently she tucked the stethoscope into his ears and placed the disk over his heart. "Listen", she said..........."What do you suppose that is?" He drew his eyebrows together in a puzzled line and looked up as if lost in the mystery of the strange tap - tap - tapping deep in his chest. Then his face broke out in a wondrous grin and he asked, "Is that Jesus knocking?"

Your Morning Chuckle
The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door.
Dear Dogs and Cats:
The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - canine/feline attendance is not required.
The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.
Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door:
TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS:
(1) They live here. You don't. (2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture. (3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people. (4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly.

Monday Morning
It is yet another Monday morning and I am at work. This Monday is extremely difficult due to the fact that the rest of the world is off and I have to work. I would like to have this day to spend it with my honey, but now I am here slaving away. I guess thats the way it goes!!!
On a better note, I had a good weekend and continue to realize how wonderful my man is!!! Life is much better now. I say this as a continuation to a blurb the other day about the frustrations at work. Where work is the same, Chad has helped to make it better. I do believe that this is going to work!!

Bored...
I am sooo bored this morning. I have caught up on all my work and have a few things for next week, but those can wait. Therefore, I am pretty bored and dont have much to do!! I am not complaining because there will be days when I have toooo much to do, so I am just going to enjoy this time to catch up on rest!!
Also, things were cleared up at work, so that has made today better and I can go into the weekend with a clear head. I just now have to apologize to my honey for being such a grump this morning!!!

Revelations 3:8
Revelations 3:8
I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! God closes doors no man can open & God opens doors no man can close. Have a blessed day and remember to be a blessing...

The Duck & the Devil.
A little boy was visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a
slingshot to play with out in the woods.
He practiced in the woods; but he could never hit the
target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back home for dinner.
As he was walking back when he saw Grandma's pet duck.
Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in
the head and killed it.
He was shocked and grieved! In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood
pile, only to see his sister watching!
Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.
After lunch the next day Grandma said, 'Sally, let's wash the
dishes.'
But Sally said, 'Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the
kitchen.'
Then she whispered to him, 'Remember the duck?'
So Johnny did the dishes.
Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing, and
Grandma said, 'I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper.'
Sally just smiled and said, 'Well that's all right because Johnny told
me he wanted to help.'
She whispered again, 'Remember the duck?'
So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help.
After several days of Johnny doing both his chore's and Sally's, he
finally couldn't stand it any longer.
He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck.
Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug and said, 'Sweetheart, I know. You
see, I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing, but
because I love you, I forgave you.
I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.'
Thought for the day and every day hereafter ... . .
Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done....... and the devil
keeps throwing it up in your face .... . . (lying, cheating, debt, fear,
bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.) . . .
Whatever it is, you need to know that God was standing at the window and
He saw the whole thing. He has seen your whole life.
He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven.
He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.
The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, He not
only forgives you, but He forgets.
It is by God's grace and mercy that we are saved.
Go ahead and make the difference in someone's life today. Share this
with a friend, and always remember:
God is at the window!
When Jesus died on the cross; he was thinking of you!
Hope you have a Great Blessed Day!
