Two friends went out to dinner and ordered the same dessert. Brownies.
When the treat came to the table it was obvious that one of the brownies was bigger than the other one. One man quickly reached out, grabbed the smaller brownie, and gave it to his friend (keeping the bigger one for himself).
The guy with the smaller brownie said, “Hey man… Do you see what you just did? You gave me the small brownie and kept the big one for yourself! What’s up with that? What gives you the right to do that?”
The guy eating the bigger brownie asked, “What would you have done?”
‘Well, I would have given you the bigger brownie and kept the smaller one for myself.”
“Well thanks, it’s delicious.” :)
Matthew 6:1 (Msg), “Be especially careful when you are trying to be good so that you don’t make a performance out of it. It might be good theater, but the God who made you won’t be applauding."
