Today's Short Reading from the Bible... from the book of Genesis:
"And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round... andHe laughed and laughed and laughed!Give me a sense of humor, Lord,Give me the grace to see a joke,To get some humor out of life,And pass it on to other folk…!
