Pastor Simpson picked up the lamp and began to rub it. A blue fog began to come out of the spout. " What is your wish?".
" I wish that more tithes would come in to help with our budget".
The following Tuesday, Derick Jones stopped Pastor Simpson in the hallway as he was walking toward Room 14.
" Pastor, I don't know what happened" he said as he showed Pastor Simpson the weekly ledger sheet. " Tithes were up 10% last weekend".
After the bible study was over, Pastor Simpson walked back to his office to sit down and relax. As he sat down at his desk, he looked at the drab and sparse surroundings of his office.
He stared at the lamp.


Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric
