There was a backwoods town who hired a new preacher,he had 1 child so he asked the congreation for more money to help raise his child.Then 2 years later he had 2 more kids so had to ask the congeration for more money and they agreed. then 3 years later he had to ask the congeration for more money because now he had 6 children,the congreagation got real silent and looked at each other with frowns on their faces.They said that is a lot to ask for.The preacher replied ,children are a gift from God.A little old grey haired lady spoke up and said,rain is a God's gift too,but when we have too much we wear rubbers.
