A young preacher recently came upon
a farmer working in his field. Being concerned about the farmer's
soul the preacher asked the man, "Are you laboring in the
vineyard of the Lord my good man?"
Not even looking at the preacher and continuing his work the
farmer replied, "Naw, these are soybeans."
"You don't understand," said the preacher. "Are
you lost?"
"Naw! I've lived here all my life," answered the farmer.
"Are you prepared for the resurrection?" the frustrated preacher
asked.
This caught the farmer's attention and he asked, "When's it gonna
be?"
Thinking he had accomplished something the young preacher
replied, "It could be today, tomorrow, or the next day."
Taking
a handkerchief from his back pocket and wiping his brow, the
farmer remarked, "Well, don't mention it to my wife. She don't
get out much and she'll wanna go all three days."
