He had a banana sticking out of his ear. I didn’t want to say anything because we need to choose our words carefully when confronted by a situation like that. Generally we don’t understand why a person would have a banana extending from his ear. One far-out possibility is that it was a misunderstood prescription from a doctor. Another explanation is that he comes from a family that practices that as some form of religious expression. It could also be that he read where a high dose of potassium is good for you and that’s the route he chose. Lastly, the thought struck me that he might just be looking for someone to make a rude comment so he could argue with that person.
In the position I’m in, the banana is of no concern, for I’m only concerned for his soul. My belief is that if he can be made right with God the banana situation can take care of itself.
Paul left us such a thought.
to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men that I might by all means save some.
Look at the soul, not the outward man.
Give it some thought.
