Praise The Lord

An elderly lady was well-known for her faith and for her boldness in talking about it. She would stand on her front porch and shout:

- PRAISE THE LORD!

Next door to her lived an atheist who would get so angry at her proclamations he would shout:

- There ain't no Lord!!

Hard times set in on the elderly lady, and she prayed for GOD to send her some assistance. She stood on her porch and shouted:

- PRAISE THE LORD. GOD I NEED FOOD!! I AM HAVING A HARD TIME. PLEASE LORD, SEND ME SOME GROCERIES!!

The next morning the lady went out on her porch and noted a large bag of groceries and shouted:

- PRAISE THE LORD.

The neighbor jumped from behind a bush and said:

- Aha! I told you there was no Lord. I bought those groceries, God didn't.

The lady started jumping up and down and clapping her hands and said:

- PRAISE THE LORD. He not only sent me groceries, but He made the devil pay for them. Praise the Lord!
