Even if you don't play golf, you gotta read this!

A guy was getting ready to tee off on the first hole when a second golfer approached and asked if he could join him.

The first said that he usually played alone, but agreed to the twosome.

They were even after the first two holes. The second guy said, "We're about evenly matched, how about playing for five bucks a hole?"

The first guy said that he wasn't much for betting, but agreed to the terms.

The second guy won the remaining sixteen holes with ease. As they were walking off number eighteen, the second guy was busy counting his $80.00.

He then confessed that he was the pro at the neighboring course and liked to pick on suckers.

The first fellow revealed that he was the Parish Priest.

The pro was flustered and apologetic, offering to return the money.

The Priest said, "You won fair and square and I was foolish to bet with you. You keep your winnings."

The pro said, "Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"

The Priest said, "Well, you could come to Mass on Sunday and make a donation of $80. And, if you want to, bring your Mother and Father along: I'll marry them."

having actually had the experience of golfing with speaker of the House "Tip" O'Neil, one of the things he said to us on the course was " tact is the ability to tell someone to go to hell and have them look forward to the trip!" that was after our twosome beat them 11-7. i still cherish that once in a lifetime opportunity.

I would take that 80 bucks, gas up my boat and buy some bait. Go out on the lake and opplogize to God in private. His mom n dad probly don't like each other anyway. And the 80 dollar donation would go to green fees, and besides,I don't go to church or play golf. But I love to fish. ๐Ÿณ๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŽฃ

Gotta ask - Sunday or not,
would you rather be on the
water fishing, communing
with God on HIS turf and enjoying/thanking him for
the beautiful environment/ weather, or sitting in church
thinking about being out on
the water ?

Amen to you Fly and Hack.
Way too many people want to enjoy all the blessings God has given us, without giving ANYTHING in return. Those in that group will never experience Godโ€™s fullness in their lives.
Not just my opinion; itโ€™s His Word.
