Give From the Heart

One Sunday a pastor told his congregation that the church needed
some extra money and asked the people to prayerfully consider
giving a little extra in the offering plate.  He said that whoever
gave the most would be able to pick out three hymns.

After the offering plates were passed, the pastor glanced down and
noticed that someone had placed a $1,000 bill in offering. He was
so excited that he immediately shared his joy with his congregation
and said he'd like to personally thank the person who placed the
money in the plate.

A very quiet, elderly, saintly lady all the way in the back shyly
raised her hand. The pastor asked her to come to the front.  Slowly
she made her way to the pastor.  He told her how wonderful it was
that she gave so much and in thanksgiving asked her to pick out
three hymns.

Her eyes brightened as she looked over the congregation, pointed
to the three handsomest men in the building and said, "I'll take
him and him and him."
