Joke Friday

During the service, the pastor asked if anyone would like to express
praise for prayers which had been answered. A lady stood up and came
forward.

She said, 'I have a reason to thank the Lord. Two months ago, my
husband, Jim, had a terrible bicycle wreck and his scrotum was
completely crushed. The pain was excruciating and the doctors didn't
know if they could help him.

You could hear an audible gasp from the men in the congregation as they
imagined the pain that poor Jim experienced.

She continued, 'Jim was unable to hold me or the children and every move
caused him terrible pain. We prayed as the doctors performed a delicate
operation. They were able to piece together the crushed remnants of
Jim's scrotum and wrap wire around it to hold it in place.'

Again, the men in the congregation squirmed uncomfortably as they
imagined the horrible surgery performed on Jim.

She continued, 'Now, Jim is out of the hospital and the doctors say,
with time, his scrotum should recover completely.'

All the men sighed with relief.

The pastor rose and tentatively asked if anyone else had anything to
say.

A man rose and walked slowly to the podium. He said, "I'm Jim and I
would like to tell my wife, the word is 'sternum.' "
