Never Give Up!

            Mothers get no respect.

            Little Timmy (not my Timothy) watched his mother spread cold cream on her face. “Why do you do that, mommy?” he asked.

            “To make myself beautiful,” his mother replied. She then began removing the cream with a tissue.

            “What’s the matter?” asked the boy. “Giving up?”           

Beauty

I am glad we serve a God who values inner beauty over outer beauty. I can relate to a woman who told about her experiences at a beauty salon.

She was in need of a beauty make-over, and told her story like this:

I went to my salon with a fashion magazine photo of a gorgeous, young, lustrous-haired model. I showed the stylist the trendy new cut I wanted and settled into the chair as he began humming a catchy tune and got to work on my thin, graying hair.

I was delighted by his cheerful attitude until I recognized the melody. It was the theme from "Mission: Impossible."

Can you relate?
