Holding Hands in Church

Every Sunday the pastor would observe Sam Campbell and
his wife Sara, holding hands. And they held hands all
through the service. It made him happy to see two such
loving old folks.

One Sunday, greeting the congregation as they filed
out the door, the pastor said to Sam and Sara, "It sure
does my heart good to see two such loving people as you,
Mr. and Mrs. Campbell. It's quite an inspiration."

Sara looked up at him and grinned, saying, "That
ain't love, Pastor. It's the only way I can keep him
from cracking his knuckles during the service."
