A little something to brighten your morning.
I think this has been around before but still rings true!!!
Subject: Here am I, send me. (Isaiah 6:8)
There are two things Navy Seals are always taught:
1. Keep your priorities in order.
2. Know when to act without hesitation.
Here is something to smile about:
A college professor, avowed atheist and active member of the A.C.L.U.,
was teaching his college class. He shocked several of his students when
he flatly stated that once and for all he was going to prove that there
was no God. Addressing the ceiling he shouted: "GOD, if you are real,
then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15
minutes!!!!!"
The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop.
Ten minutes went by. "I'm waiting God, if you're real, knock me off
this platform!!!"
Again after four minutes, the professor taunted God saying, "Here I am,
God-!! I'm still waiting!!!"
His count down got down to the last couple minutes when a Navy Seal, who
was just released from the Navy, after serving in Afghanistan and Iraq,
and had newly registered for the class, walked up to the Professor. The
Seal hit him full force in the face. This sent the Professor tumbling
from his platform. The Professor was out cold. The students were stunned
and shocked.
They began to babble in confusion. The Seal nonchalantly took his seat
in the front row and sat in silence. The class looked at him and fell
silent also ... waiting. Eventually, the professor came to and was
noticeably shaken. He looked at the Seal in the front row. When the
professor regained his senses and could speak, he asked: "What the heck
is the matter with you? Why did you do that?"
The Seal said, "God was really busy, protecting America's soldiers, who
are protecting your right to say stupid things and act like an ass. So,
He sent me."
May God BLess our folks in uniform providing our blanket of freedom
