"Sunday School Lesson"


 

     When I read a scriptural reference to our need for patience, I am reminded of an incident that occurred in my childhood at Sunday School.

      A dozen of us children listened intently to a story about a man walking his donkey.  I remember the teacher痴 every word.

      Act One
      Donkey:  Water, Master, Water.
      Master:   Patience, Jackass, Patience.

      Act Two
      Donkey:  Water, Master, Water.
      Master:   Patience, Jackass, Patience.

      Act Four
      Donkey:  Water, Master, Water.
      Master:   Patience, Jackass, Patience.

      Immediately I blurted out:  What happened to Act Three?

      Of course, the teacher retorted:  Patience, Jackass, Patience! 

      Everyone laughed uproariously at my humiliation, but I learned a valuable lesson.

      Wait patiently for the LORD.  Be brave and courageous.  Yes, wait patiently for the LORD.  Psalm 27:14
