A Generous Choice | 慷慨的选择

English Original

One Sunday, a pastor encouraged his congregation to give a little extra in the offering plate, promising that the top contributor could choose three hymns.

After the collection, the pastor noticed a $1,000 bill. Overjoyed, he shared the news and asked to personally thank the generous donor.

A quiet, elderly widow shyly raised her hand. The pastor invited her to the front. He praised her extraordinary generosity and asked her to select the three hymns.

Her eyes lit up as she surveyed the congregation. She pointed to the three most handsome men present and said, "I'll take him, and him, and him."

收集完毕后,牧师发现了一张1000美元的钞票。他欣喜万分,宣布了这个消息,并希望亲自感谢这位慷慨的捐赠者。

一位安静、年长的寡妇羞涩地举起了手。牧师邀请她到前面来。他赞扬了她非凡的慷慨,并请她选择三首赞美诗。

她的眼睛亮了起来,扫视着会众。她指向在场三位最英俊的男士,说道:“我要他,他,还有他。”
