Chapter 152
A boy was swimming in a river and went so far out that he was in danger of drowning. Fortunately, he saw a man walking by and yelled to him with all his might. Instead of rushing to his aid, however, the man began to lecture the boy for being so foolhardy and swimming in deep water. Finally, the boy was forced to cry out, “Please, sir, save your sermon for later, and save me now.”
Advice without practical help is futile.
