Friday, March 23, 2012 at 7:00AM My friend Joe Taylor passed this joke along. I found it funny.
Traditionally, Presbyterians hold a view of God's sovereignty which includes that all events in history are in harmony with God's foreordained, perfect will--all suffering and hardship as well as all blessing and fruitfulness. Nothing comes to pass of which God is not the direct cause. Everything occurs according to the plan of the Almighty.
One day, a faithful Presbyterian awoke and emerged from the bedroom of his second story house. Still a bit sleepy, he stumbled on the top step of his staircase, and preceeded to roll to the bottom. Bruised, but not badly hurt, he arose to his feet, dusted off his shirt, and said aloud, "Well, I'm glad that's over with!"
