Sunday greetings, everyone - and welcome to July!

I had two old fillings replaced this past week at the dentist. They were cracking, which is not surprising because I think they have been in my mouth since my early teens and in that time I have done a lot of talking and chewing (at the same time on some occasions.) That is a lot of use and wear and tear.

A few days after my appointment, I received a survey asking for feedback about my experience. The dentist office I go to is really good so I was able to answer many of the questions with 10 out of 10 (How was the welcome? How long was the time in the waiting room? How was the dentist?)

But when they asked me to rank how comfortable I was during the appointment, I had to laugh. I don't care how good you are, if you stick needles in my gums, drill holes in my head, leave half my face numb for hours, and my moustache smelling of burnt tooth smoke for the rest of the day, the best I can give you is a 5 (which is what I did with that explanation.)

Part of me wishes I will be sent a similar survey after my next colonoscopy - that would be fun to give feedback about!

An American and his wife were driving in Canada and got lost on the prairie. After what seemed like forever, they finally came to a city.

When they saw a gentleman on the sidewalk they pulled up to the curb and the lady wound down her window and asked: "Excuse me, sir.  Where are we?"

The gentleman replied, "Saskatoon, Saskatchewan."

The woman rolled up the window, turned to her husband and said,

"We really are lost. They don't even speak English here!"

People are so judgmental - I can tell just by looking at them.

I told a joke on a zoom meeting, but nobody laughed.

Turns out I'm not remotely funny.

"A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success."

On a recent flight, an elderly passenger kept peering out the window.

Since it was totally dark, all she could see was the blinking wing-tip light.

Finally, she rang for the flight attendant.

"I'm sorry to bother you," she said, "but I think you should inform the pilot that his left-turn indicator is on and has been for some time."

Featured Illustrations are items well suited for illustrating or inspiring a point in a sermon, speech, or devotional. Funny, moving, or perhaps even graphic, the point of them is the point you make with them.

Rev. James Snyder, God's Penman, writes . . . . 

When it comes to words, everybody has their own definition.

Someone says one word and another person thinks it's altogether something else. For example, when someone says "vegetable," The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage thinks broccoli. On the other side of the dinner table, I think carrot cake. We have never been able to come together on this word. I often get in trouble when at a restaurant. The waitress comes to take our order, then looks at me and asks what vegetable I wanted. I reply, "I'll have carrot cake for my vegetable today."
