How to stay safe in the world today.
Avoid riding in automobiles,
because they are responsible for
20% of all fatal accidents.
Do not stay home because,
17% of all accidents
occur in the home.
Avoid walking on streets or sidewalks because, 14% of all accidents
occur to pedestrians.
Avoid traveling by air, rail, or water because,
16% of all accidents involve
these forms of transportation.
Of the remaining 33%,
32% of all deaths occur in hospitals.
Above all else, avoid hospitals.
You will be pleased to learn that,
only .001% of all deaths occur
in worship services in church,
and these are usually related to
previous physical disorders.
Therefore, logic tells me that the safest place,
for us to be at any given point in time,
is at church!
Bible study is safe too.
The percentage of deaths during Bible study
is even less.
SO, FOR SAFETY'S SAKE my friends,
Attend church and/or Bible study tomorrow.
IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!

Oh my..this is different..well done..be well and safe....HUgsssss
Why wait for tomorrow Paul, I want to live before I die and it could be today so I'm on my way, lol. Nice to know someone is doing their homework. Thank you for sharing.
I love you philosophy. It reminded me of the joke about the man who wouldn't sleep in bed because of the number of deaths that occured in bed, so he slept in a cafe booth. Regardless, of the statistics, going to church, being prayerful and mindful of God will help improve one's life.
Brilliant! But maybe the stats are such because we spend so little time preoccupied in the ways you suggest... they could go up if we were to spend longer... but I'm being devilish here... at least we should be closer to Home if we conk out while communing with the Lord... He can pick us up and carry us through the door! :)) xx
Without a shadow of a doubt Paul, Amen to this. What a write too, had me reeled in.
Ty and it's a pleasure to read you again.
Take care God bless

He Keeps Me is a devotional journey of revelation and insight birthed out of prayer.Searching the Word of God revealed the many ways that He has kept me and continues to keep me. Each day is an opportunity to recognize that God is mindful of you, eve
Timeless wisdom and advice on the art of living for today’s young and old: The art of thinking, the art of loving, the art of working, the art of leadership, the art of growing old.
