Chewy Little Bits


As the children left the kitchen, Brian spoke up. "I know you said the chocolate was good. If someone would have asked me, I would have said it just like you did. But ... I really had no idea until it was in my mouth."

When Helios realized that Icarus refused to choose between the sky and the water, he summoned all his wrath and melted the wax holding the boy's feathers. The boy fell down, down into the ocean.

An ounce of heart knowledge is worth a ton of head knowledge.
Spurgeon

The greatest singer-song writer was hated by most people. Many people said he was their favorite. Strangely, only one fan really liked his music … cherishing his every note.

Throughout his life Narcissus was surrounded by women wishing to be his lover. One day he wished to see his appearance for himself. He went down to the river and looked. 'How horrid!' He cried. 'They were all playing a cruel trick on me!' And he threw himself into the water.
The next day, the people said Narcissus had found his reflection so lovely that he came too close and drowned. The women laughed with each other. "What an ego-maniac!" They said.

Everyone wishes to be noticed, but there is something about a hero that wishes to remain concealed.

When the professor began the class he instructed every student to build a robot, as would the professor himself. The students laughed at the professor's robot, which was much smaller than the robots of everyone else.
At the end of the day, the robots were all turned on. One by one they went to the robot of the professor and bowed before it.

Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perservers. Love never fails.
1 Corithians 13:7-8a

The wicked husband began eating his lunch when he noticed a small note written on his napkin. 'Don't forget my love for you!' It read.
He sat back in his chair, as though offended. 'I haven't got any time for that!'

Why is it that people fear corrupting the world, but few people fear that the world will corrupt them? Why do so many people want to get into heaven, but few people who want heaven to get into them?

Verbiage is to devotion what the chaff is to the wheat.
Spurgeon

The police officer noticed he was walking by a shop window. He paused and looked in for a second at what appeared to be a costume shop. There were bright masks, scary masks, masks that looked like famous people he had seen pictures of. He noted to himself how interesting they were.
"What if I made my whole life into a mask ... what if there was no one underneath?"
He shuddered to himself and continued walking.
