A Frog\u2019s Tale
Mr. Frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patty Whack.
\u201cMiss Whack, I\u2019d like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.\u201d
Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says, \u201cmy name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and it\u2019s okay to borrow that amount of money because John Smith, the bank manager, and I are good friends.\u201d
Patty explains, \u201cWell, Mr. Frog, we will need to secure the loan with some collateral.\u201d
Mr. Frog says, \u201cSure, I understand; I have this delicate, scarce tiny porcelain elephant, as you can see, is about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.\u201d
Very confused, Patty explains, \u201cI will have to consult with Mr. Smith, the bank manager,\u201d and then she disappears into a back office.
She finds Mr. Smith and says, \u201cThere\u2019s a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral.\u201d She holds up the tiny pink elephant. \u201cI mean, what in the world is this?\u201d
Mr. Smith looks at the tiny elephant and hands it back to Patty, and says, \u201cIt\u2019s a knick-knack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man\u2019s a Rolling Stone.\u201d
(Come on and admit it, you sang it, didn\u2019t you? Yeah, I know you did.)

I hope that brought a smile to your face today.\xa0If it did pass your smile onto some else, we all could use a kind smile each day.\xa0Our Thursday thought is, \u201cA knick-knack is a thing that sits on top of a whatnot.\u201d

Here is our verse for today:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6%3A19-20&version=NLT (Matthew 6:19-20)
\u201cDon\u2019t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal.
Just as you enjoy these nuggets of humor, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of \u2018Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.\u2019
