THE  DROUGHT  AND  A  COMMITTEE

By Rev. Dean Beaty 10/6/08

Here in the sunny south we are truly in a drought.

There are many places where the wells have all run out.

But do not be discouraged the church will do its part.

The leaders of the churches are very, very smart.

So forming a committee they came up with a plan.

“Each denomination must do what e’er they can.”

They met for many days. What to do, they had no inkling.

The Baptist spoke up first, “We will switch to sprinkling.”

Not to be out done so others would not gripe.

The Methodist chimed in, “We’ll switch to a wet-wipe.”

The Presbyterians had a plan.  It was real high tech.

“If they come around, we’ll give them a rain check.”

Catholics from Notre Dame called their alma mater.

The scientist took charge to change their wine to water.

The moral of this story for those of you who care.

When a committee lets you down.  Call on God in prayer
