"A merry heart doeth good like a medicine... (Proverbs 17:22)."
"The CAT Scan!"
A man brought a very limp dog into the veterinary clinic. As he lay the dog
on the table, the doctor pulled out his stethoscope and placed the receptor
on the dog's chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and
said, "I'm sorry, but your dog has passed away."
"What?" screamed the man. "How can you tell? You haven't done any testing on
him or anything. I want another opinion!"
With that, the vet turned and left the room. In a few moments, he returned
with a Labrador Retriever. The Retriever went right to work, checking the
poor dead dog out thoroughly with his nose. After a considerable amount of
sniffing, the Retriever sadly shook his head and said, "Bark" (meaning "Dead
as a doornail").
The veterinarian then took the Labrador out and returned in a few moments
with a cat, who also carefully sniffed out the poor dog on the table. As had
his predecessor, the cat sadly shook his head and said, "Meow" (meaning "He's
history"). He then jumped
off the table and ran out of the room.
The veterinarian handed the man a bill for $600.
The dog's owner went berserk. "Six hundred dollars! Just to tell me my dog is
dead? This is outrageous!"
The vet shook his head sadly and explained. "If you had taken my word for it,
the charge would have been fifty dollars, but with the Lab work and the cat
scan..."

Today's Faith 'n Truth-Builder
"...building up yourselves on your most holy faith... (Jude 20)."
"Look Up!"
If you put a buzzard in a pen six or eight feet square and entirely open
at the top, the bird, in spite of his ability to fly, will be an
absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight
from the ground with a run of ten or twelve feet. Without space to run,
as is his habit, he will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a
prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.
The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkable nimble
creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed
on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly
and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from
which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like
a flash.
A Bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler will be there until it dies,
unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top,
but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the
bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely
destroys itself.
In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the
bee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations,
not realizing that the answer is right there "above" them.
