A young boy had just gotten his driving permit. He asked his father
who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the car. His
father took him to his study and said to him, "I'll make a
deal with you. You bring your grades up, study your bible a little
and get your hair cut and we'll talk about it."
After
about a month the boy came back and again asked his father if they
could discuss use of the car.
They
again went to the father's study where his father said, "Son,
I've been real proud of you. You have brought your grades up, you've
studied your bible diligently, but you didn't get your hair cut!"
The
young man waited a moment and replied, "You know Dad, I've
been thinking about that. You know, Samson had long hair, Moses
had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long hair...."
To which
his father replied... "Yes, you're right...
and they also WALKED every where they went!" |
