The Lighter Side Of Faith


~Part One~

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kurtis, 8, and Steven, 3.   The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.
Their mother saw the oppurtunity for a moral lesson and said, "If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, 'Let my brother  have the first pancake.  I can wait.'"   Kurtis turned to his younger brother and replied, "Stevie, you be Jesus."

A father was at the beach with his children when his four-year-old son
ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore, where a Sea Gull lay dead in the sand.  "Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked.  "He died and went to Heaven," the dad replied.  The boy thought a moment and then said, "Did God throw him back down?"

A wife invited some people to dinner.  At the table, she turned to their six-year-old daughter and asked, "would you like to say the blessing?"  "I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.  "Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.  The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"

A mother was teaching her three-year-old The Lord's Prayer.  For several evenings at bedtime, the child repeated it after the mother.  Then one night the child was ready to solo. 
The mother listened with pride to the carefully enunciated words.. right up to the end.   "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us some e-mail".
