"Praise the Lord!"
My grandmother, who lived in Tucson, was
well-known for her faith and lack of reticence
in talking about it. She would go out on the front
porch and say, "Praise the Lord!"
Her next door neighbor would shout back,
"There ain't no Lord!"
During those days, my grandmother was very
poor, so the neighbor decided to prove his point
by buying a large bag of groceries and placing it
at her door.
The next morning, Grandmother went to the porch
and, seeing the groceries, said, "Praise the Lord!"
The neighbor stepped out from behind a tree and
said, "I brought those groceries, and there ain't no
Lord."
Grandmother replied, "Lord, you not only sent me
food but you made the devil pay for it."
