I was told a story about a lady in the hospital who was near death when an area Chaplain came to visit her. This Chaplain was a very young female with long blond hair. She listened to the lady who was ill and left her a small gift for comfort. It was a tiny ceramic frog.
The next day one of the people from the lady's church came to visit. The lady told her friend about the beautiful young Chaplain who had come to visit her.
The friend was so impressed with the way the lady had improved and felt the need to talk to the young Chaplain. In her search to find the young gal, she was repeatedly reassured that the chaplains are never very young and that there was never a gal that fit the description given.
Upon returning to the lady in the hospital, a visiting nurse entered the room and noticed the ceramic frog. The nurse made the comment "I see you have a guardian angel with you." As she held the little frog, we asked why she made the comment and we were informed that the frog stood for:
F ully
R ely
O n
G od
Note of interest:
If you throw a frog into hot water, she'll jump out. But if you put it in tepid water and turn the heat up slowly, it'll get used to it and stay until the water's so hot it boils it.
Unless, that is, it's a very smart frog and catches on quickly. Then when the heat gets too much for it, it jumps out before it gets boiled. If the other frogs see it, they might jump out in time too.
