I Read A Little Blurb In A Reader's Digest Years ...
Contributed by Clark Tanner on May 19, 2008 (message contributor)
I read a little blurb in a Reader’s Digest years ago. A man sent in the story of when he was driving through an animal park where the animals are free and the visitors drive through on a narrow road to look at them.
He said that as he came around a bend there was a large black car with darkly tinted windows trying to make a u-turn, and as it was a narrow road the way was temporarily blocked. The man said he quickly came to a stop, and as the black car passed him in the opposite direction he yelled, “Where, for Christ’s sake, do you think you’re going?”
His final line in the story went like this. “Imagine my chagrin, when the tinted window lowered, Billy Graham stuck his head out and with a smile yelled back, “I hope I go everywhere for Christ’s sake.”
