I also remember this short poem about a man who compalined during offertory /collection.. I don't think this is the whole poem but it goes something like this...
" 'What? giving again? And shall I keep on giving ang giving again?'
'Oh no', said an angel, piercing me through...
'just give, until God stops giving you' " :-)
Remember, too, to give God what is right...
... not what is left!
God bless! :-)

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained
that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years
now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000
sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So,
I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving
sermons at all." This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the
Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks
until someone wrote this clincher: I've been married for 30 years now. In
that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But for the life of me, I
cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do
know this: They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do
my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically
dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would
be spiritually dead today!" When you are DOWN to
nothing...
God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible
and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual
nourishment! "When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Jesus,
could you get that for me? Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
So work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, and
dance like no one's watching.
Everyday is a gift, that's why it's called the present. Treat it as such
and enjoy every minute.
