Painter Man

MonkieSocks

A tradesman-painter named Jack was always keen to make the extra buck where he could.

So he would often thin down his paint to make it go a wee bit further.

As it happened, he got away with this for some time.

Eventually, the local church decided to do a big restoration project.

Jack put in a painting bid and, because his price was so competitive, he got the job.

So he started; erecting the trestles and putting up the planks, and buying the paint and as usual thinning it down with turpentine.

He was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly done, when suddenly there was a mighty clap of thunder.

The sky opened and the rain poured down, washing the thinned-down paint from all over the church and knocking Jack off the scaffold to land on the lawn.

Jack was no fool.

He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty, so he fell on his knees and cried,

“Oh, God! Forgive me! What should I do?”

And from the thunder, a mighty Voice spoke, “Repaint! Repaint! And thin no more!”
