I hear weird things concerning frogs. Almost since time began, tales have been handed down from generations regarding raining frogs. Yep. That's right...raining frogs. Apparently it happens when a wind storm passes over a body of water like a lake or pond. The wind just picks them right up and dumps them elsewhere...thus it is raining frogs. Clink on tohttp://allaboutfrogs.org/weird/general/raining.html for a cute animated picture of "raining frogs."
I vividly remember a sermon years ago based on this frog fable, Frog in a Milk Pail. You will really like this fable:
Frog in a Milk Pail
A frog was hopping around a farmyard, when it decided to investigate the barn. Being somewhat careless, and maybe a little too curious, he ended up falling into a pail half-filled with fresh milk.
As he swam about attempting to reach the top of the pail, he found that the sides of the pail were too high and steep to reach.
He tried to stretch his back legs to push off the bottom of the pail but found it too deep.
But this frog was determined not to give up, and he continued to struggle.
He kicked and squirmed and kicked and squirmed, until at last, all his churning about in the milk had turned the milk into a big hunk of butter.
The butter was now solid enough for him to climb onto and get out of the pail!
"Never Give Up!"
Till next time.....Frannie

So this elderly man walking down a park lane hears a voice and looking down he sees a frog who says;"I am an enchanted princess cursed by an evil witch,if you kiss me I shall make love to you all day as well as cook and clean and shop for you!'So,he picks it up and puts it in his pocket and walks away,saying;"It's all right;at my age a talking frog, is good enough!"
I have another inspirational frog story, one that teaches the dangers of having a closed, unimaginative mind.
There is a myriad variety of alien entities, predominantly unseen and elusive, who frequent this planet.
But many frogs dwell in abject ignorance about this mind boggling, greater truth.
Twice upon a time (maybe, even thrice upon a time), a frog who lived by the side of a vast blue-green ocean visited his distant frog cousin who lived very far away in a deep, small well in a very dark cave.
"Isn't my world amazing ?
Isn't it wonderful and complex and totally beautiful?!", said the cousin frog who lived in the cave in the dark deep well.
And the relative frog who lived by the side of a vast blue-green ocean said;"One day, my cousin, you must come and visit with me and see where I live and visit my home!"
So it came to pass, that his cousin, one day, packed his suitcase and left his small well in the dark cave and traveled far to visit his cousin frog who lived by the blue-green ocean.
And when the cousin from the small cave got there, he saw his frog cousin's house on the beach and he viewed the unlimited expanse and spectacular majesty of the shore and the blue-green ocean, and his head exploded and he died.
wow i like that. did you make up that story? you are so amazing..how you can make us think outside the box. i am typing with my left hand..i fell and broke my r pinky finger.
haven't had a visit from my broter-in-law who passed a couple of months ago, but i am sure it will happen. he went with some unfinished business..i would like to know why. thanks for responding, paul
Yes I created a special froggy tale for an enchanted princess with a broken webbed pinky.(just one kiss and it will be healed and entirely better.)
(I have a recent new male kitten who is a rescue and brand new to my house and I recently showed him the litter and told him;"Never, EVER think outside of the box!")
About your brother-in-law ;a few months passed to us, is just like a few minutes passed to them; you WILL be 'visited' by him and will know it for a fact when for no apparent reason you will suddenly find yourself thinking of him; sense him at that moment as he will be in the room with you .
You can then address the 'unfinished business' aspect directly by telling him to not waste another second with you, here, and to immediately cross over and go to the 'Christ-Light'.
