A group of soldiers was trying to push a loaded wagon up a hill, when a rider on horseback came along.

A corporal in charge was shouting,"Push harder!" But they were unsuccessful.

"Why don't you help them?" asked the rider.

"Because I'm a corporal," he answered.

Getting off his horse, the stranger helped the men, and together they pushed the wagon up the hill.

He said, "The next time you have a job too big for your men, send for me, General George Washington."

Graciousness is the key to greatness. You always get to the top when you help others up a hill.

Our Lord said, "Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister."
