with them to Jerusalem. A young girl answered, "Because they could not get a
babysitter."
* Another Sunday school teacher was instructing her class. Just before
she dismissed them to go to church she asked them, "Why is it necessary to
be quiet in church?" Little Gilbert was quick to blurt out the reply,
"Because
people are sleeping!"

Today's Truth: "In Spirit Only"
By Judy Neuman
Last night I dreamed a frightening dream,
It was so real to me!
I watched myself arrive at church--
(A strange one as you'll see).
My burdened heart had come to hear
The prayers of the saints.
But not a one showed up that morn
To lift in prayer the faint.
No songs were wafted to the sky,
To cheery my downcast heart.
No gifts were giv'n to pay the bills
That each might share a part.
I cried, "Where is the Church of God
"while millions seem so lonely?"
Then heard the distant voices say,
"We're here...'in spirit only'!
"For other things now interest us,
Our bodies can't attend.
They're tired on Sunday mornings,
So our spirits we must send!"
"Our weeks are filled with work, work, work;
On weekends we must play.
Church isn't in our schedule,
We'll come some other day."
By Judy Neuman.
