WRONG E-MAIL ADDRESS
By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.
The following
article came to me
recently and I
contended that I
should pass it on.
It has been slightly
edited and a
conclusion added.
A couple from
Minneapolis decided
to go to Florida for
a long weekend to
thaw out during one
particularly icy
winter. They planned
to stay at the very
same hotel where
they spent their
honeymoon 20 years
ago.
Because both had
jobs, they found it
difficult
coordinating their
travel schedules. It
was decided that the
husband would fly to
Florida on a
Thursday,
and his wife would
follow him the next
day.
Upon arriving as
planned, the husband
checked into the
hotel. In his room
there was a
computer, so he
decided to send his
wife an e-mail back
in
Minneapolis.
However, he
accidentally left
out one letter in
her address, and
sent the e-mail
without realizing
his error.
In Houston, a widow
had just returned
from her husband's
funeral. The dearly
departed had been
called home to glory
following a heart
attack. The widow
checked her e-mail,
expecting messages
from relatives and
friends. Upon
reading the first
message, she
fainted.
The widow's son
rushed into the
room, found his
mother on the floor,
and saw the computer
screen which read:
"To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've
Arrived.
I know you are
surprised to hear
from me. They have
computers here now
and you are allowed
to send e-mails to
your loved ones.
I've just arrived
and have been
checked in. I see
that everything has
been prepared for
your arrival
tomorrow. Looking
forward to seeing
you then! Hope your
journey is as
uneventful as mine
was. P.S. Sure is
hot down here!"
Plainly, don’t get
short changed. Let’s
be ready to meet our
Maker. The Bible (in
Acts) teaches that
to avoid hell and
gain heaven - one
must:
1) Believe In Jesus
As Savior (16:31) 2)
Repent Of Sins
(17:30)
3) Confess Christ
Audibly (8:37) 4) Be
Baptized In Water
(2:38)
5) Live A Christian
Life (14:22) 6) Be
Active In the Church
(2:47)
