Pumpkin
A woman was asked by a coworker. "what is it like to be a Christian?
The woman replied, "It is like being a pumpkin.
God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and washes all the dirt off of you.
Then he cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff.
He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc., and then He carves you a new smiling face and puts his light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.
Then he leaves you on the porch to rot, your potential wasted, and scoops you up with a shovel and throws you into the trash once you are all gooey and disgusting."
