From an online friend:

This was sent to me & I liked it as a good simple explanation of what being a Christian is like, especially as we have been through the time when the media focus on Halloween, which has nothing to do with being a Christian. It may be a useful in for discussions.

A woman was asked by a co-worker, ‘What is it like to be a Christian?’

The co-worker replied, ‘It is like being a pumpkin.’ God picks you from the patch, brings you in, & washes all the dirt off of you. Then He cuts off the top & scoops out all the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, & greed. Then He carves you a new smiling face & puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.’
