Isn't it strange?

My friend sent this to me and I wanted to share this with all.
Thank You, Deanna.
Isn't it Strange...

Isn't it strange how a 20 dollar bill seems like such
a large amount when you donate it to church,
but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when
you're at church, and how short they seem when
you're watching a good movie?

Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say
when you're praying, but you have no trouble
thinking what to talk about with a friend?

Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is
to read one chapter of the Bible,
but how easy it is to read 100 pages
of a popular novel or a new magazine?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants
front-row-tickets to concerts or games,
but they do whatever is possible to sit
at the last row in Church?

Isn't it strange how we need to know about
an event for Church 2 or 3 weeks before the day
so we can include it in our agenda, but we can adjust
for other events in the last minute?

Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact
about God to share it with others, but how easy it is
to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?

Isn't it strange how we believe everything
that magazines and newspapers say,
but we question the words in the Bible?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in
heaven, but they don't want to believe, do,
or say anything to get there?

Isn't it strange how we send jokes in e-mails

and they are forwarded right away,
but when we are going to send messages
about God, we think about it twice before
we share it with others?

Strange isn't it??

"Beloved think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you." I Peter 4:12
