Jack’s Winning Words 10/24/19 “…and now I need a bath!”  (Albert Einstein)  This quote was cited in the comic strip, Get Fuzzy. “How do you know Einstein said that?”  “Well, he must have said it at some time.”  The fact is that famous people are common people in many ways.  A friend told me that someone she knows checks out the toilet before Queen Elizabeth uses it.  A hymn says: “We share our mutual woes, our mutual burdens bear.”  Even Jesus cried when he heard of a friend’s death.   ;-)  Jack     FROM ST PAUL IN ST PAUL:       Jack,  we just saw the movie version of Downton Abbey.   when the King and Queen come for a visit, in a bout 1922(?)  their staff comes ahead of time:  maids, chefs, butlers, body guards, valets, etc. etc.  and one of them does indeed inspect all the bathroom facilities. ===JACK:  Another example....Does Trump comb his own hair, or does someone do it for him?===SP:  i thought it was a wig.    we call him Agent Orange.. ===JACK:  I was taught not to make fun of people's looks....It's continually a work in progress. ===SP:  you are correct.  its like judging a book by its cover without knowing anything about the contents.  good point...JACK:  I hate it when I see my imperfections.  ===SP:  don't we all.   i like the line:  i am so glad when i step out of the shower each morning and the mirror is steamed over!===JACK:  That probably means that you wouldn't feel comfortable in a nudist camp.     FROM JT IN SJ:  Wonderful.   You made that quote powerful. And it was kind of a silly quote. Just proves===JACK:  Einstein put his pants on, one leg at a time. FROM HUNGRY HOWIE:  Other things we have all said at least once      And now I need a drink  And now I need a friend  And now I need a nap  nd now I need to leave ===JACK:  Another......I need to use the bathroom FROM FACEBOOK LIZ:  when i read online of meghan markle’s troubles trying to adjust to royal life, the comments were cruel... “w/all that money, blah blah blah.”  after witnessing diana’s struggles, we should know better. the heartbreak is amplified for people like her and meghan.===JACK:  What a pain it must be....to live always in the spotlight!  Give me privacy! FROM WALMART REV:  I'm thinking Jesus must have brushed He teeth or used some kind of mouth wash as well?! Bathroom etiquette? Headline this morning on one of my news app's: "Not washing your hands after using bathroom worse than eating raw meat, study finds" 0;-)===JACK:  I have trouble wrapping my head around Jesus being an actual human being...going to the bathroom...bathing...belching...scratching...etc. ===REV:  I'm with you as well . . . I use this Scripture along with posting a daily hymn or song, “After they sang a song, they went out . . .” (Matthew 26:30 NLV) . . . I have a hard time picturing Jesus either leading, playing a musical instrument or singing along with the disciples too?! 0;-)===JACK:  I wonder if Jesus cracked a joke, or whistled. or ran, or skipped? FROM OUTHOUSE JUDY:  Humorous words but oh how true.  Even Jesus used the outhouse, ate, drank and cried.  We should never despair!  He overcame it all and made sure we were able to share life-everlasting with Him!===JACK:  Jesus was God, in human form, showing/telling us what we can be as humans.===JUDY:  Yes, aren’t we blessed?  We will meet each in Heaven.  Bring your Winning Words.  The people who said them will talk to you about them!  😊 ===JACK:  I'm sure that in Heaven there will be more interesting things to talk about than Winning Words..  At times I feel that "the Spirit" leads me to write what I write. ===JUDY:  Won’t it be fun to talk to all the authors you have quoted?  I’m sure the Winning Words are a ministry you were led to do.  The Holy Spirit gives us guidance.
