I happened to catch a snippet of televangelist Joel Osteen's sermon last
night, and it went something like this: Osteen was invited over to a
friend's house who had hung a number of paintings on the walls. Osteen
looked at them and found them worthless: sloppy, splattered, abstract.
Later his friend told him that one such painting was a Picasso, worth a
million dollars. T'was then that Osteen saw the light: the painting, on its
own, was rubbish. It was only precious when you realized that a genius
created it. In a similar way, each of us is a masterpiece thanks to our
creator, God.


That's certainly not what I get from that story. But you're joking,
right?
