Funny - His Math Grades Had Been Steadily Declining

 


She decided to have a chat with Johnny about his disinterest in math, being more responsible with his studies, and the importance of bringing his grade up.

The next quarter ended, Johnny's report card came out, and his math grade was still low

So Johnny's mother decided to call his math teacher in an attempt to get to the root of the problem

Little Johnny's mother was hopeful that Johnny's math grade would finally improve.

But to her dismay, his grade had still not improved on his next report card.

In an act of desperation, little Johnny's mother decided to transfer him to the local Catholic school.

Immediately, she noticed that when Johnny came home from school, he wouldn't say a word, but would go straight to the table and begin doing his math homework

Johnny's mother was very pleased with this sudden change; and over the course of the next few weeks, it seemed little Johnny's math issue had finally been resolved.

Once again, Johnny's report card came; but this time he got an “A” in math.

Johnny's mother was overjoyed, yet a little perplexed.

She asked him, “What do they do so differently at the Catholic school that finally persuaded you to change your attitude and bring up your math grade?”

Little Johnny replied, “On the first day of math class, when I looked up and saw that guy hanging from the giant plus sign above the chalkboard, I knew they weren't messing around.”

Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
