A minister decided to do something a little different one Sunday
morning.
He
said "Today in church, I am going to say a single word and you are going
to help me preach. Whatever single word I say, I want you to sing whatever hymn
that comes to your mind." The pastor shouted out, "CROSS."
Immediately
the congregation started singing in unison, "THE OLD RUGGED CROSS."
The
pastor hollered out, "GRACE." The congregation began to sing
"AMAZING GRACE," how sweet the sound.'
The
pastor said "POWER." The congregation sang, "THERE IS POWER IN
THE BLOOD."
The
Pastor said, "SEX". The congregation fell into total silence.
Everyone
was in shock. They all nervously began to look around at each other... afraid
to say anything.
Then
all of a sudden, way from in the back of the church, a little old 87-year-old
grandmother stood up and began to sing "PRECIOUS MEMORIES."
