A new preacher had just begun his sermon and he was a little nervous so about ten minutes into the talk his mind went blank. He then remembered what they had taught him in seminary to do in such a situation: Repeat the last statement he made to remind himself of what to say next.

So he thought he would give it a try and repeated his last statement, saying, “Behold, I’m coming. I’m coming quickly.” But his mind was still blank so he tried again and said, “Behold, I’m coming quickly!” But still nothing happened so he tried again, this time with such force that he fell forward, knocking the pulpit to one side, tripping over a flower pot and falling into the lap of a little old lady in the front row.

So the young preacher apologized and tried to explain what had happened but the old woman said, “Oh, that’s all right young man; that’s all right. It was my fault! I should have gotten out of the way especially after you told me three times that you were coming!”

A little boy came crying to his mother because his little sister had pulled his hair. And trying to calm him down, the mother said, “Don’t be angry. Your little sister doesn’t realize that pulling your hair hurts.” A short while later there was more crying and the mother came to investigate. This time, the sister was crying and her brother said, “Well, now she knows!”
