This gave me a chuckle.

Israeli Sense of Humour: 

An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile. 

A representative from Israel began: "Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Moses. When he struck the rock and it brought forth water, he thought, 'What a good opportunity to have a bath!' 

"He removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. 

"When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Palestinian had stolen them." 

The Palestinian representative jumped up furiously and shouted, "What are you talking about? The Palestinians weren't there then." 

The Israeli representative smiled and said, "And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech."

While obviously fictitious, it's good for a laugh. :)

2 Peter 2:9a

"...then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations..."

I came across this today and I thought it was a great thought to hold on to; firstly that the Lord knows everything, and secondly that He will deliver the godly out of temptations.

I hope that realization blesses you as much as it blessed me!
