Today's Daily Joke

Pastor’s Message:

A pastor was giving the childrens message during church.
For 
this part of the service, he would gather all the children 
around him and give a brief lesson before dismissing them for 
Sunday School.
On this particular Sunday, he was using 
squirrels for an object lesson on industry and preparation. 

He started out by saying, "I'm going to describe something, 
and I want you to raise your hand when you know what it is." 

The children nodded eagerly.


"This thing lives in trees (pause) and eats nuts (pause)..." 

No hands went up. "And it is gray (pause) and has a long bushy 
tail (pause)..."
The children were looking at each other, but 
still no hands raised.
"And it jumps from branch to branch 
(pause) and chatters and flips its tail when it's excited 
(pause)..."


Finally one little boy tentatively raised his hand.
The pastor 
breathed a sigh of relief and called on him.
"Well," said the 
boy, "I KNOW the answer must be Jesus...but it sure sounds 
like a squirrel to me!"
