7 precious gifts

Hello. Again. I just came back from Sunday Class. Today the group was kind of awfully lonely. Paul was doing the lesson, so he was not with the group and Louis is gone... So the group was pretty much like hanging on a thread. But Peter and some of us tried to get the group together. But it came down to the proactive ones that participated. Still... I wish they would concentrate more on the Lesson.

Today we learnt about the Holy Sprit and the 7 gifts that it brought with it.
  1. Wisdom
  2. Knowledge
  3. Awe and wonder
  4. Right Judgment
  5. Courage
  6. Reverence
  7. Understanding
I was assigned to do Knowledge and so was Claire! Well I learnt that the gift of Knowledge was to be able to comprehend the basic meaning and message of God. Personally, I do not really think that I have the Gift of Knowledge at all, or if I do, I don't use it. I hope one day that I will be blessed to have all 7 gifts, so that I can be furthered ushered to be more in the likeness of God. When Catherine was explaining about Understanding- that the gift of understanding was to be able to understand what somebody was saying. While she said the previous statement, She kept on gesturing to her Right. I was sitting directly next to her....

Oh. Paul, Marcia and Julianna cracked a Joke each. You have to read it out loud to enjoy it.

Marcia
Two snails were going to cross the road. Snail 1 crossed the road first and got knocked down by a turtle. The cop said to the snail,'Did you see what happened?'

Snail 2 said: 'It happened too fast'

Julianna
How do you spell Olympics?

Ans: Circle-circle-circle-circle-circle
*I still don't get this one. Can anyone enlighten me? I don't have the gift of understanding....

Paul
A man was driving on the mountains when his car stalled because it had no more petrol. A bee flew into the car and said:'Sir, you seem to be in some kind of trouble. How may I help you?'

The man told the bee his problem. The bee replied:' Wait here.I'll go get help.' The man waited.

Three hours later, the same bee came back with a whole swarm of bees. The bee told the man to open the petrol compartment.When the cap was unscrewed, the entire swarm of bees flew into the petrol compartment. Five minutes later, the swarm emerged and the bee told the man to start the engine.The engine started.

How?

It was because the Bee Peed(BP petrol).

* No offense meant to the company or to anyone. Sorry.
