WHAT DID SHE SAY?

There were once two men, Pete and Joe out sailing in a boat. A fierce storm blew up. Torrents of rain splashed down. The waves were rocking them. They desperately the rigging this way and that trying to keep the boat upright.

"It's at times like this" shouted Pete above the noise the storm, "I really wish I'd listened to what my ol' Mum said."

"Why?" asked Joe "What did she say?"

"I don't know, I didn't listen!"

Often when it come to hearing what God has to say, we are bit like Pete and Joe - we never hear what God says because..... we don't listen.
