One afternoon the head pastor of an evangelical mega-church was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?"
"We don't have any money for food. We have to eat grass," the poor man replied.
"Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you," the pastor said.
"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree."
"Bring them along," the pastor replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us, also."
The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!"
"Bring them all, as well," the pastor answered.
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was.
Once under way, one of the poor fellows turned to the pastor and said, "Sir, you are too kind.. Thank you for taking all of us with you.”
The pastor replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place. The grass is almost a foot high."
