Through the eyes of a child! Children are Gods most precious Gift to us. A Mothers story.

Last week I took my children to a restaurant. My six-year-old son asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, God is great and God is Good. Let us thank Him for the food, and I would even thank You more if mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice for all! Amen!

Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to pray. Asking God for ice cream! Why, I never!

Hearing this, my son burst into tears and asked me, Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me? *

As I held him and assured him that he had done a terrific job and God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly gentleman approached the table. He winked at my son and said, I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer.

Really? my son asked.

Cross my heart. Then in theatrical whisper he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes.

Naturally, I bought my kid's ice cream at the end of the meal. My son stared at his for a moment and then did something I will remember the rest of my life. He picked up his sundae and without a word walked over and placed it in front of the woman. *

With a big smile he told her, Here, this is for you. Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes, and my soul is good already.

Thank you Seastarr. A boy of about 7 years old asked a Priest that was standing smoking. Priest are u a child of GOD? The Priest answered. Yes my son i am a child of GOD. The boy replied. Priest children do not smoke. That was the last cigarette the Priest ever smoked. *

And daily i see adults s*cking on a burning dummy. Christians live in the word of GOD not tabacco. *
