Breaking the Silence




A couple had a really bad argument, which was not unusual for them. Then the usual pattern played out: silent treatment. Both ways. Strained, tense silence.

They had to be somewhere that required them to drive through the country. As they were driving along in their angry silence, they came up on a barnyard with several donkeys in it. The wife saw this as an opportunity to break the silence – with sarcasm of course!

Looking and pointing at the donkeys, she asked, "Relatives of yours?" As the words settled, she crossed her arms smugly.

Her husband smiled and answered her, "Yes! In-laws!"

It’s Friday and you should laugh!

Remember Proverbs 17:22.

A cheerful disposition is good for your health; gloom and doom leave you bone-tired.

Have a great weekend, and go to church for Heaven’s sake!
