celebrate and worship the dead log in their pond. After a time

               they became brave enough to come near the god. Soon they

               found that they could sit upon the god and be comfortable in the

               sun. They found many uses for the god as a place to croak and

               catch insects. One day one of the frogs complained and said; this

               god is nice and useful but it does not do anything on its own.

               Wouldn't it be nice to have a god like ourselves that can do

               something? So the frogs decided to pray again for a God that

               could do something. They began to croak in the night in prayer


               in a load voice that filled the night. A dark shadow appeared in
               the sky and circled the pond. The frogs all jumped into the water


               and hid. In the morning when light came they looked upon the

               log and saw a great crane bird standing upon their god. The

               frogs all rejoiced and were thankful because they now had a real

               god that was alive like them. The frogs all swam to worship the

               crane god. The crane god began to eat up the frogs to their

               surprise and after many days there were almost no more frogs in

               the pond.


               The Moral to the story is that it is better to have a dead god that

               does nothing than a


               real god that requires your life.

               Many Christians today have their dead god and dead churches;


               they live dead lives in sin because they do not want a real God

               that says they must lay down their lives. They are comfortable

               sitting upon their pews and croaking out their dead doctrine of
