Thanks Kim for this one!!
Nurses aren't supposed to laugh....
'Of course I won't laugh, said the nurse. I'm a professional.
In over twenty years I've never laughed at a patient.'
'Okay then,' said Fred, and he proceeded to drop his trousers, revealing
the tiniest 'man thingy' the nurse had ever seen. Length and width, it
couldn't have been bigger than the a AAA battery. Unable to control
herself, the nurse started giggling, then fell to the floor laughing.
Ten minutes later she was able to struggle to her feet and regain her
composure.
'I am so sorry,' she said. 'I don't know what came over me. On my honor as
a nurse and a lady, I promise it won't happen again. Now, tell me, what
seems to be the problem?'
...'It's swollen,' Fred replied.
She ran out of the room.

This is so true!
This is from a newsletter I subscribe to and wanted to share with you guys since so many of you have small children. I am scared for our little ones growing up in todays world. We must truly rely on God for guidance to raising our children....We don't want them making some of the mistakes that we made...
Where Are the Parents?
2 Timothy 2:22
Now flee from youthful lusts, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
I wish I heard more Christian parents struggling over how they will help their preteens and teenagers control these dangerous sexual desires. But I don't.
For almost three decades many Christian parents have watched as our culture has performed surgery on our children's morals-an amputation of conscience. It's no mistake that schools are full of kids who do not know right from wrong.
The bottom line is we are not challenging our youths with a high enough standard. You and I know our culture is calling them into immorality. The forces today are simply too powerful for our youths to handle their sexual urges alone. We need to help them learn how to avoid kicking their sex drives into high gear.
A lot of parents pass this responsibility on to their youth pastors. But they are no substitute for parents who will train their kids about sex.
Barbara and I are the God-appointed guardians of our children's purity. Will we be 100 percent successful? Sadly, no. We will fail. And our children are not robots; they will make some choices and will fall short at times. Rather than lowering biblical standards, however, we want to help our kids (and you) go for the gold: innocence.
When I hear parents talking, I sense many feel pretty helpless to protect their sons and daughters from getting involved sexually prior to marriage. Others are confused; they aren't sure what is right or which direction to go, so they say very little to their children, or nothing at all.
Yet kids want their parents to challenge them. They need parents who will help them protect their innocence. In fact, I'm starting to read surveys that show teenagers are upset at adults who assume they are going to have sex before marriage. They want to be challenged to something higher, something better.
Prayer:
For the families in your church and community. Pray for a movement of parents who would join you in protecting their children's innocence.
