Holding Hands, from Stockxpert
When my parents were here this weekend, my mom brought me a box of family history stuff. In one small wooden box were a pile of letters written by my grandfather to my grandmother. I have been enjoying the read. The following joke was written in one of the letters:
A young teenage couple were holding hands as they approached the church building. As they began to mount the steps, the girl smartly pulled her hand away. The boy complained and asked why. The girl sharply replied: "Because it isn't Palm Sunday." Upset, he muttered back: "Well, its not Independence Day either!"
From Proverbs 6:
My son, keep your father's commands
and do not forsake your mother's teaching.
Bind them upon your heart forever;
fasten them around your neck.
When you walk, they will guide you;
when you sleep, they will watch over you;
when you awake, they will speak to you.
For these commands are a lamp,
this teaching is a light,
and the corrections of discipline
are the way to life,
keeping you from the immoral woman,
from the smooth tongue of the wayward wife.
