Like A Pumpkin
A woman was asked by a coworker, 'What is it like to be a Christian?'
The coworker replied, 'It is like being a pumpkin.' God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and washes all the dirt off of you.
Then He cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, and greed.
Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.'

I have never heard of it that way but I think that it is spot on. I think that it was a very good comparison. But I do think that it is a little harder than that. I also think that we should take some credit for what we do as well.
