Kids in Church
3-year-old Reese: "Our Father, Who does art in heaven,
Harold is His name. Amen."
A little boy was overheard praying "Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, don't
worry about it. I'm having a real good time like I am."
After the christening of his baby brother in church, Jason
sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three
times what was wrong. Finally, the boy replied, "That preacher said he wanted us
brought up in a Christian home, and I wanted to stay with you guys."
One particular four-year-old prayed, "And forgive us our trash baskets as we
forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
A Sunday school teacher asked her children as they were on
the way to church service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?" One
bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."
A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin 5, and Ryan 3. 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 be Jesus!"
A father was at the beach with his children when the four-
year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore where a
seagull lay dead in the sand. "Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked. "He
died and went to Heaven," the Dad replied. The boy thought a moment and then
said, "Did God throw him back down?"
A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to their six-year-
old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the blessing?" "I wouldn't know what
to say," the girl replied. "Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite all these
people to dinner?"
JAMES (age 4) was listening to a Bible story. His dad read: 'The man named Lot was
warned to take his wife and flee out of the city but his wife looked back and was turned to salt.'
Concerned, James asked: 'What happened to the flea?'
This particular Sunday sermon...'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a
rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust....' He would have continued but at that
moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill
little four year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'
