A lady had recently been baptized. One of her co-workers asked her what it
was like to be a Christian. She was caught off guard and didn't know how to
answer; but when she looked up, saw a jack-o-lantern on the desk and 
answered:
"It's like being a pumpkin."

The co-worker asked her to explain that one.

"Well, God picks you from the patch and brings you in and washes off all the
dirt on the outside that you got from being around all the other pumpkins.
Then he cuts off the top and takes all the yucky stuff out from inside. He
removes all those seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc.
Then he carves you a new smiling face and puts his light inside of you to
shine for all to see. It is our choice to either stay outside and rot on the 
vine
or come inside and be something new and bright."

I'll never look at a pumpkin the same way again !!
