Text: Philippians 4:4; Psalm 32:11; 1 Thessalonians 5:16
***Blessed are those who can
laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused. Those who can't
laugh at themselves leave the job to others. ***
And God populated the earth with
broccoli and cauliflower and spinach and green and yellow vegetables of all
kinds, so man and woman would live long and healthy lives. And Satan developed
the fast foods industry. And fast foods brought forth the 99 cent double
cheeseburger. And Satan said to man, "You want fries with that?" And
man said, "Supersize them." And man gained pounds.
And God created the healthful
yoghurt, that woman might keep her figure that man found so fair. And Satan
froze the yoghurt, and he brought forth chocolate, nuts and brightly colored
sprinkle candy to put on the yoghurt. And woman gained pounds.
And God said, "Try my crispy
fresh salad." And Satan brought forth creamy dressings, bacon bits, and
shredded cheese. And there was ice cream for dessert. And woman gained pounds.
And God said, "I have sent
your heart healthy vegetables and olive oil with which to cook them." And
Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And
man gained pounds, and his bad cholesterol went through the roof.
And God brought forth running
shoes, and man resolved to lose those extra pounds. And Satan brought forth
cable TV with remote control so man would not have to toil to change channels
between ESPN and ESPN2. And man gained pounds.
And God brought forth the potato,
a vegetable naturally low in fat and brimming with nutrition. And Satan peeled
off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy centre into chips and deep-fried
them. And he created sour cream dip also. And man clutched his remote control
and ate the potato chips swaddled in cholesterol. And Satan saw and said,
"It is good." And man went into cardiac arrest.
And God sighed, and created
quadruple bypass surgery, angioplastys, and stents. And Satan established HMOs...
