FUNNY, ISN'T IT or IS IT?

Received this as a fwd (back when I was still reading them). I changed some to be more applicable to me.

Funny how a $100 bill "looks" so big when you take it to church, but so small when you take it to Wal-mart.

Funny how long it takes to serve God for an hour, but how quickly a 60 minute layover in the airport lasts (if things are on time anyway).

Funny how long a couple of hours spent at church seems, but how short they are when watching a movie.

Funny how we can't think of anything to say when we pray, but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend.

Funny how we get thrilled when a game goes into overtime, but we complain when a sermon is longer than the regular time.

Funny how hard it is to read a chapter in the Bible, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of almost anything else.

Funny how when packing books for a trip, the Bible is that last one that I think about packing.

Funny how people want to get a front seat on Southwest, but scramble to get a back seat at church services.

Funny how we need 2 or 3 weeks advance notice to fit a church event into our schedule, but can adjust our schedule for other events at the last moment.

Funny how hard it is for people to learn a simple gospel well enough to tell others, but how simple it is for the same people to understand and repeat gossip.

Funny how we believe what the newspaper says, but question what the Bible says.

Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, or to think, or to say, or do anything.

Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing.

FUNNY, ISN'T IT ? Are you laughing? Are you thinking? Actually, it isn't funny at all!
