In the Doctor’s office

Well here it goes!
I have been trying to lose weight so I went to a weight clinic where they stick a big needle in my butt three times a week.

 The head doctor there is a very outgoing guy by the name of Paul.  He is very friendly and likes to chat with all of his clients including me. On day two I am sitting in the waiting room looking forward to my shot in the rear when Paul being his jovial self is talking to everyone about why he is always prepared for anything. I must point out that he was not talking directly to me but it was a very public talk so I had two cents to spend.

 He said some words that got my attention about money. He mentioned that he follows spiritual principals about the way he handles his money. I immediately thought I was going to hear something about tithes and offerings. Boy was I wrong! He started to mention how in the bible that God blessed this guy who buried his money in the ground. Paul said, “that he takes a tenth of his own money and socks it away and God blesses him.

Needless to say, I about fell out of my chair at that incredible misquoting of scripture. I waited about two seconds before I responded on the Lord’s leading! I said, “Hey Paul, actually it was the man who took the money from the ruler and invested it and made profit that was pleasing to God. The man who kept the money for himself and buried it in the ground was displeasing to God. God wants us to use His money wisely and to please Him. This is why the one who invested wisely and made alot more was given charge over ten cities.

 Well, at this point the whole waiting room was dead quiet and no one would look my direction. The last time I saw heads down like this was when I was in church on the weekend and we were praying. I am almost sure they weren’t praying. I would venture to say that they didn’t want to make eye contact with me.

 Paul listened intently to the story but just when I was finished a lady walked in with a little kid and Paul’s attention got distracted!

I can’t wait till friday morning when I go again! I think I am getting a leading from the LORD to talk to Paul in his office. I quess we will see won’t we????

 As far as the people in the waiting room go. It will be interesting to say the least. I see most of them every week. Needless to say, they might look me up on twitter and avoid going to were I am at!

FOR HIS KINGDOM!
