HANNAH 1:1-7
Today's post comes to you from the Bible. I mean the Pie-bull. I mean, my wife.
"As Jesus was heading out, a man ran up to him and shook his hand.
'Excuse me, sir,' he said, 'but I was wondering what I should do in order to attain the resurrection. I know you're a good teacher.'
'Why call me good?' replied Jesus. 'No one's good except God alone. You know the commandments: "Don't kill. Don't commit adultery. Don't steal. Don't swear falsely. Don't defraud. Honour your father and mother."'
'But sir,' he said, 'I've kept all of them since I was a kid.'
Jesus looked hard at him, and loved him. 'Oh, and one thing I forgot,' he said. 'Delete your Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, blog, Pinterest, e-mail, LinkedIn, Myspace, and invite your next door neighbours over for dinner.'
At that, his face fell, and he went off sadly. He was very plugged-in."
