Sermon Illustrations for Proper 14 | OT 19 (2012)
2 Samuel 18:5-9, 15, 31-33
An elderly lady had been waiting to pull into a parking place. And she had been waiting and waiting with her blinker on and doing all the right things. When suddenly this young man in his brand new red Mercedes speeds around her and parked in the space.
The little old lady was very upset, as I would be, and she went up to the man and said, "I was going to park there!" And the young man replied with a smirk and said, "That's what you can do when you're young and smart."
