As I walk into the saloon I head towards the bar where I can drown my thoughts that are of this day, for they have been swimming in my mind since I rose from my restless nights sleep. As I sit down to begin my spiral into my abyss, I pause…
Customer:
“WE” don’t serve the likes of your kind around here!
Bartender:
“Don’t mind him, his wife will be here shortly to retrieve him, what will you be having today sir?
Me:
“A shot of water!
Bartender:
LOL! It looks as if you need something stronger than that!
Me:
“You know, I think you are right!
Bartender:
“Well then, what will you be having today?
Me:
“I know this might sound a bit strange, but do you happen to have a Bible?
Bartender: (noticeably exited)
“I don’t have one in the bar, but I do have a couple in the car, do you want the “KJV” version, or the “NIV” version?
Me:
“The “KJV” version, thanks for asking.”
“Bartender:
“I’ll be right back, God is good!”
Me:
“Amen!”
“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.”
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Straight no chaser……
DAME
