Sharing some laughs

Several messages "straight from the heart/mouth of a child". Enjoy

LOT'S WIFE: The Sunday School teacher was describing how Lot's wife looked back and turned into a pillar of salt, when little Jason interrupted,"My Mommy looked back once, while she was driving," he announced triumphantly, "and she turned into a telephone pole!"

GOOD SAMARITAN:A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the Good Samaritan. She asked the class, "If you saw a person lying on the Roadside, all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?"A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence, "I think I'd throw up."

DID NOAH FISH?: A Sunday school teacher asked, "Johnny, do you think Noah did a lot of Fishing when he was on the Ark?""No," replied Johnny. "How could he, with just two worms."

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD: A Sunday School teacher decided to have her young class memorize one Of the most quoted passages in the Bible; Psalm 23. She gave the youngsters a month to learn the chapter. Little Rick was excited about the task -- but, he just couldn't remember the Psalm. After much practice, he could barely get past the first line. On the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in front of the congregation, Ricky was so nervous. When it was his turn, he stepped up to the microphone and said proudly, "The Lord is my Shepherd, and that's all I need to know."

UNANSWERED PRAYER?: The preacher's 5 year-old daughter noticed that her father always paused and bowed his head, for a moment, before starting his sermon.One day, she asked him why."Well, Honey," he began, proud that his daughter was so observant of his messages,"I'm asking the Lord to help me preach a good sermon.""How come He doesn't do it?" she asked.

BEING THANKFUL: A rabbi said to a precocious six-year-old boy, "So your mother says your prayers for you each night? That's very commendable. What does she say?" The little boy replied, "Thank God he's in bed!"

UNTIMELY ANSWERED PRAYER: During the minister's prayer, one Sunday, there was a loud whistle from one of the back pews. Tommy's mother was horrified. She pinched him into silence and, after church, asked, "Tommy, whatever made you do such a thing?"Tommy answered, soberly, "I asked God to teach me to whistle, and He just then did!"

ALL MEN / ALL GIRLS?: When little, Kelli, said her bedtime prayers, she would bless every family member, every friend, and every animal (current and past).For several weeks, after her and her mom had finished the nightly prayer, Kelli would say,"And all girls." As this soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this at the end, her mom´s curiosity got the best of her and she asked her,"Kelli, Why do you always add the part about all girls?"Her response, "Because we always finish our prayers by saying 'All Men'!"

SAY A PRAYER: Little Johnny and his family were having Sunday dinner at his Grandmother's house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.When Little Johnny received his plate, he started eating right away."Johnny! Please wait until we say our prayer." Said his mother"I don't have to," The boy replied."Of course, you do," his mother insisted. "We say a prayer before eating, at our house.""That's our house," Johnny explained. "But this is Grandma's house and she knows how to cook!

HAVE A GREAT BEGINNING OF THE WEEK.
