Some church members are as stubborn as a mule
about doing church
work,
but as sly as a fox in their own business
deals.
Some are as busy as a bee in spreading the
latest gossip,
but as quiet as a mouse to spreading the gospel
of Christ.
Many are as blind as a bat to see the needs of
others,
but have eyes of a hawk to see the faults of a
few.
Some are as eager as a beaver about a
barbecue,
but as lazy as a dog about the prayer
meetings.
Some will roar like a lion when things do not
go
just to suit them,
but they are as gentle as a lamb when they
need
the preacher of the
church.
Some are as noisy as a blue jay when
calling
on the church for
advice,
but as timid as a kitten about talking to the
lost
and as slow as a snail about visiting absentees
and shut-ins.
Many are night owls on Saturday
nights,
but "bed bugs" Sunday
mornings,
and as scarce as hen's teeth on Wednesday
nights.
