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."

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."

 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 answer 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!"

 ALL MEN  / ALL GIRLS

When my daughter, Kelli, said her bedtime

prayers , she would bless every family member,  every friend,

and every animal (current and past).  For several weeks,  after we had

finished the nightly prayer, Kelli would say, "And all girls."  

This soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this  closing.

My curiosity got the best of me and I asked her, "Kelli, why do  you

always add the part about all girls?"  

Her response, "Because everybody else always finish their 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 need to," the boy replied.   

"Of course, you do" his mother

insisted. "We always say a prayer before eating at our house."

"That's at our house." Johnny explained.  "But  this is

Grandma's house and she knows how to cook.
