Brother Tyler and Brother Richard,
I'm sending this to you first because I don't know if it's
appropriate for Higher-Fire. I think maybe you'd better check it out
first. Decide amongst yourselves and let me know...???? It's
completely up to you!!

We've all heard about the tongue slip "Livers of Riving Water".
Well here's one I hesitate to print because I would "never" wish to
offend anyone but the more I think of it the more I think it should be
shared and I do believe that you'll understand, because it "really did
happen"!! I have sent this to a few of you privately asking your
opinion and the answers I got back were "go for it" so I believe I
will. =)
My brother-in-law who is one of those firey, short, jump for joy
preachers was preaching about Balaam and the donkey. He was in Numbers
22 around the 24th verse and he was really getting with it.....
24 But the angel fo the Lord stood in a path of the vineyards, a
wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
25 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she thruse herself
unto the wall, and crushed Baalem's foot against the wall: and he smote
her again.
26 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she fell down under
Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a
staff.
27 And the Lord opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto
Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these
three times?
Then he said, "That's pretty bad when God has to speak to you out
of the ass of a donkey"!!!
All was very quiet!!!!
Then a great "wooping" laugh from a ladies voice. It was his
sister!! Then the whole place fell apart laughing. It's a good thing
he's a good sport and a nut himself!! That's what got him through it!
