Forgive Your Enemies

In his sermon, the preacher used "Forgive Your Enemies" as his subject. After 30 minutes, he asked how many were willing to forgive their enemies. About half held up their hands.

Not satisfied he harangued for another 20 minutes and repeated his question. This time he received a response of 80%.

Still unhappy, he lectured for another 15 minutes and repeated his question. With thoughts now on Sunday dinner, all responded except one elderly lady. "Mrs. Jones, why aren't you willing to forgive your enemies?"

"I don't have any."

"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"

"Ninety-three."

"Please come down to the front and tell the congregation how a person be 93, and not have an enemy in the world."

The little sweetheart tottered down the aisle, very slowly turned around and said:

"It's easy, I just outlived the bitches."
