Sea of Galilee

A Scotsman, planning a trip to the Holy Land, was aghast when he
found it would cost one hundred dollars an hour to rent a boat on
the Sea of Galilee.

"Hoot mon," he said, "in Scotland it wouldna ha been more than $20."

"That might be true," said the travel agent, "but you have to take
into account that the Sea of Galilee is water on which our Lord
Himself walked."

"Well, at $100 an hour for a boat," said the Scotsman, "it's no
wonder He walked."

24 hours

God: "Whew! I just created a 24 hour period of alternating
light and darkness of Earth."

Angel: "What are you going to do now?"

God: "Call it a day."

One day I decided to take my three children to an ice skating party in a nearby town, but after several wrong turns and stops to ask directions, I pulled over to the side of the road and suggested we all ask God to help us find the rink. When we finally arrived, we were nearly an hour late.

The following week, as we got into the car to go skating again, my five-year-old son exclaimed, "Mom, let's pray now and save time!"

Our kindergarten class went to the fire station for a tour and some instruction in fire safety. The fireman was explaining what to do in case of a fire.

He said, "First, go to the door and feel the door to see if it's hot." Then he said, "Fall to your knees. Does anyone know why you ought to fall to our knees?"

One of the little tykes said, "Sure, to start praying to ask God to get us out of this mess!"

Heart Sounds

A nurse on the pediatric ward, before listening to the
little ones' chests would plug the stethoscope into their
ears and let them listen to their own hearts. Their eyes
would always light up with awe.

But she never got a response to equal four year old David's.
Gently he tucked the stethoscope in his ears and placed the
disk over his heart.

"Listen", she said, "What do you suppose that is?"

He drew his eyebrows together in a puzzled line and looked
up as if lost in the mystery of the strange tap-tap-tapping
deep in his chest. Then his face broke out in a wondrous
grin. "Is that Jesus knocking?" he asked.

Waiting

My wife took our three-year-old to church for the first
time. Getting impatient while waiting for the Mass to
start, he turned to her and asked, "What time does Jesus get here?"

RAISING LAZARUS

Our children's Sunday School classes were presenting their end of the year program for the congregation - telling about the life of Jesus.

When it came to the part about Jesus' miracles, one little boy said, "Yes, Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead!"

The teacher urged him to tell us more.

He said, "Well, Jesus told them to open the tomb, and then He said, 'Lazarus, come out!' And it's a good thing he didn't just say 'Come out!' because there would have been a stampede of dead guys."

Needless to say our congregation enjoyed the presentation very much.

Storm Response

Last night I was telling my kids about Jesus calming
the storm in Mark 4. I told them how Jesus and the
disciples were all in a boat crossing a lake when
a storm came up and threatened to sink the craft.
Meanwhile, Jesus had fallen asleep in the stern.

So the disciples, fearing for their lives, went back
and woke Jesus, hoping he could do something to save
them. I said Jesus woke up and said "Quiet..."

To which my son interjected, "I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!"

Roller Coaster

When they were at Sea World in Florida Natalie was fascinated by the roller coaster and all its screaming passengers.

Matt asked her if she'd like to go on the roller coaster, and she said no, it would be too scary.

"Would you go on it with Daddy?" Matt asked.

Natalie said emphatically, "No, it would be too scary!"

After a minute or two of thought she said, "Maybe... MAYBE if Jesus came with me I'd ride on it!" `

The Sermon I think this Mom will never forget:

"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?"

Laughing Prayer

A good friend was waiting nearby while his young son prayed
silently before going to bed. Suddenly the boy burst out
laughing.

"Reggie!" scolded his father, "Why are you laughing during
prayer?"

"But Dad," the boy answered, "you told me that prayer is
talking to God as to a friend, and I just told him a joke."

Children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, "take only one, God is watching".
Moving through the line, to the other end of the table, was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A boy wrote a note, "take all you want, God is watching the apples".

Prayer

A grandfather walking past his young granddaughter's room one night saw her kneeling beside her bed, with head bowed and hands folded, repeating the alphabet.

"What are you doing?" he asked her.

She explained, "I'm saying my prayers, but I couldn't think just what to pray for. So I'm just saying all the letters of the alphabet, and God can put them together however he thinks best."

Curiosity

A teacher was finishing up a lesson on the joys of discovery and the importance of curiosity.

"Where would we be today," she asked, "if no one had ever been curious?"

"Still in the Garden of Eden?"

It was Palm Sunday, and Sue's three year old son had to stay home from church because of strep throat. When the family returned home carrying palm branches, he asked what they were for.
His mother explained, "People held them over Jesus' head as he walked by."
"Wouldn't you know it," the boy fumed. "The one Sunday I don't go, Jesus shows up!"
