A little girl prayed: "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us some e-mail. Amen."
One particular four-year-old prayed, "and forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
A little boy was overheard praying, "Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, it's okay. I'm having a real good time like I am."
A Sunday School teacher asked her small pupils as they were on the way to the church service, "Why should we be quiet in Church?" One bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."
Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother Joel were sitting together in Church. Joel giggled, sang, and talked out loud. Finally, his big sister had enough. "You're not supposed to talk out loud in Church." "Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked. Angie pointed to the back of the Church and said, "See those two men standing by the door? They're hushers."
At Sunday School they were teaching how God created everything, including human beings. Little Johnny, a kindergartener, seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was created from one of Adam's ribs. Later in the week, his mother noticed him lying as though he was ill and asked, "Johnny, what's the matter?" Little Johnny responded, "I have a pain in my side. I think I'm going to have a wife!"
A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons Kevin, five, and Ryan, three. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson. "If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, Let my brother have the first pancake. I can wait." Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, "Ryan, you can be Jesus!"
And finally..... from a three-year-old: "Our Father, who does art in heaven, Howard is his name...."
The Importance of Using Correct E-Mail Addresses:
A couple from Minneapolis decided to go to Florida for a long weekend to thaw out during one particularly icy winter. Because both had jobs, they had difficulty coordinating their travel schedules. It was decided that the husband would fly to Florida on a Thursday, and his wife would follow him the next day. Upon arriving as planned, the husband checked into the hotel. There he decided to open his laptop and send his wife an e-mail back in Minneapolis. However, he accidentally left off one letter in her address and sent the e-mail without realizing his error.
In Houston, a widow had just returned from her husband's funeral. He was a minister of many years who had been 'called home to glory' following a heart attack. The widow checked her e-mail expecting messages from relatives and friends. Upon reading the first message, she fainted and fell to the floor. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read: To: My Loving Wife From: Your Departed Husband Subject: I've Arrived! I've just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.
P.S. Sure is hot down here!
