Random Illustration:
A BETTER SPEAKER
A pastor was asked to speak for a certain charity. After the meeting,
the chairman handed him a check.
"Oh, I couldn't take this," the pastor said humbly. "I'm just happy
for the honour of being asked to speak. I'm sure you have BETTER uses
for this money. You apply it to one of those."
The chairman asked, "Well, do you mind if we put it into our Special
Fund?"
The pastor replied, "Of course not. What is the Special Fund for?"
The chairman answered, "So we can get a better speaker next year!"
