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."One particular four-year-old prayed,"And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
I had been teaching my three-year old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord's Prayer for several evenings at bedtime.She would repeat after me the lines from the prayer.
Finally, she decided to go solo.I listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word, right up to the end of the prayer:"Lead us not into temptation," she prayed,"but deliver us from E-mail.
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."
