A pastor's wife was expecting a baby, so he stood before theCongregation
and asked for a raise.
After much discussion, they passed a rule that whenever the
preacher's family expanded, so would his paycheck.

After 6 children, this started to get expensive and the
Congregation decided to hold another meeting to discuss the
Preacher's' expanding salary.

A great deal of yelling and inner bickering ensued, as to how
much the clergyman's additional children were costing the church, and
how much more it could potentially cost.

After listening to them for about an hour, the pastor rose from
his chair and spoke, 'Children are a gift from God, and we will take
as many gifts as He gives us.
Silence fell on the congregation.

In the back pew, a little old lady struggled to stand, and
finally said in her frail voice,
'Rain is also a gift from God, but when we get too much of it, we
wear rubbers.'
