The Innocence Of Children

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 Mummy
looked back once, while she was driving," he announced triumphantly,
"and she turned into a telephone pole!"
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 David. "How could he,
with just two worms?"
HIGHER POWER
A Sunday school teacher said to her children, " We have been learning
how powerful kings and queens were in Bible times. But, there is a
higher power. Can anybody tell me what it is?" One child blurted out,
"Aces!"
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 verse. 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, Rickey 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."
Church Smiles
There was a very gracious lady who was mailing an old family Bible to
her brother in another part of the country. "Is there anything breakable
in
here?" asked the postal clerk."Only the Ten Commandments," answered the
lady.
While driving in Pennsylvania , a family caught up to an Amish carriage.
The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because
attached to the back of the carriage was a hand printed sign..."Energy
efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step in
exhaust.
Sunday after church, a Mom asked her very young daughter what the lesson
was about. The daughter answered, " Don 't be scared, you'll get your
quilt." Needless to say, the Mom was perplexed. Later in the day, the
pastor stopped by for tea and the Mom asked him what that morning's
Sunday school lesson was about. He said "Be not afraid, thy comforter
is coming."
Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some humor out of life,
