A lady was taking her boy to cub scouts and he had a lizard in a jar and somehow as boys do the lizard got out. And the lizard ran up the leg of the mom.

I thought this is so much like life and then I saw this little commercial or what, it caught me off guard, I wished I had a pen and written down what he said.

And he told how many times that had happened. He told how many games he had lost. And then he said. "It is my failures that have led me to my success." Wow! I thought thanks Michael I need in my sermon. Because ...
