The Three Wise Women
Posted: Fri Dec 21, 2007 11:52 am
What would have happened if on the Christmas, there had been three wise women instead of three wise men?
They would have:
asked for directions
arrived on time
helped deliver the baby
cleaned the stable
brought more practical gifts, and
made a casserole.
But, women shouldn't necessarily gloat about these truths, since there are several other truths here. After they left, they'd be saying to each other:
Did you see the sandals Mary was wearing with that gown?
Did you see the drummer boy?! He can beat my drum anytime.
That donkey they're riding has seen better days.
I hear that Joseph isn't even working right now.
Virgin? Hah! I knew her in school days!
That baby doesn't look anything like Joseph.
Wanna bet how long it will take to get your casserole dish back?
