An Irishman in a wheelchair entered a restaurant one afternoon and asked
the waitress for a cup of coffee. The Irishman looked across the
restaurant and asked, "Is that Jesus sitting over there?"
The waitress nodded "yes," so the Irishman told her to give Jesus a cup
of coffee on him.
The next patron to come in was an Englishman with a hunched back. He
shuffled over to a booth, painfully sat down, and asked the waitress for
a cup of hot tea. He also glanced across the restaurant and asked, "Is
that Jesus over there?"
The waitress nodded, so the Englishman said to give Jesus a cup of hot
tea, "My treat."
The third patron to come into the restaurant was a Redneck on
crutches. He hobbled over to a booth, sat down and hollered, "Hey there,
sweet thing. How's about gettin' me a cold glass of Coke!" He, too,
looked across the restaurant and asked, "Is that God's boy over there?"
The waitress once more nodded, so the Redneck said to give Jesus a cold
glass of Coke, "On my bill."
As Jesus got up to leave, he passed by the Irishman, touched him and
said, "For your kindness, you are healed." The Irishman felt the strength come
back into his legs, got up, and danced a jig out the door.
Jesus also passed by the Englishman, touched him and said, "For your
kindness, you are healed." The Englishman felt his back straightening up,
and he raised his hands, praised the Lord and did a series of back flips
out the door.
Then Jesus walked towards the Redneck. The Redneck jumped up andyelled,
"Don't touch me . . . I'm drawin' disability!
