The two thousand member church was filled to overflowing capacity one Sunday morning.  The preacher was ready to start the sermon when two men, dressed in long black coats and black hats entered through the rear of the church.  One of the two men walked to the middle of the church while the other stayed at the back of the church.  They both then reached under their coats and withdrew automatic weapons.  The one in the middle announced, "Everyone willing to take a bullet for Jesus stay in your seats"!  Naturally, the pews emptied, followed by the choir.  The deacons ran out the door, followed by the choir director and the assistant pastor.  After a few moments, there were about twenty people left sitting in the church.  The preacher was holding steady in the pulpit.  The men put their weapons away and said, gently, to the preacher, "All right, pastor, the hypocrites are gone now.  You may begin the service".

A little girl, dressed in her sunday best, was running as fast as she could, trying not to be late for Bible class.  As she ran she prayed, "Dear Lord, Please don't let me be late."  As she was running and praying, she tripped on a curb and fell, getting her clothes dirty and tearing her dress.  She got up, brushed herself off, and started running again.  As she ran she once again began to pray, "Dear Lord, Please don't let me be late... but please don't shove me either."

Every year, Smitty and his wife Martha went to the State Fair.  And every year, Smitty would say, "Martha, I'd like to ride in that there airplane."  And every year, Martha would reply, "I know, Smitty, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars."  This one year Smitty and Martha went to the fair and Smitty said, "Martha, I'm 71 years old.  If I don't ride that plane this year I may never get another chance."  Martha replied, "Smitty, that there airplane ride is ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars."  The pilot overheard them and said "Folks, I'll make you a deal.  I'll take both of you up for a ride.  If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I won't charge you, but if you say one word it's ten dollars."  Smitty and Martha agreed, and up they went.  The pilot performed all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word was heard.  He even did a nose dive, pulling up 15 feet above the ground, but still not a word.  They landed and the pilot turned to Smitty,  "By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didn't."  Smitty replied,  "Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, ... but ten dollars is ten dollars!"
