Naming Problems

"Sun vs Shade"

The pastor's sermon focused on how G~d knows
which of us grows best in the sunlight and which of us needs shade.

"For example," he said, "roses must be planted
in the sun, but fuchsias thrive in the shade."

After the service, a woman, her face beaming, approached him.

"Your sermon did me so much good," she said.

Before he had time to gloat too much, however,
she added, "I always wondered what was wrong with my fuchsias."

"Naming Problems"

Tony, having his second son christened, was much
concerned about getting the correct name on the birth certificate.

"Will you please name the baby just as I give it to you?"

"Certainly," answered the minister, "why shouldn't I?"

"Well you see, it's like this," replied Tony. "When I told
you I wanted to name my first boy Tom, you wrote on
his birth certificate 'Thomas.'

This boy I want to name Jack."
