Jane
Dear GOD,
Maybe Cain and Abel would not kill each other so much
if they had their own rooms. It works with my brother.
Larry
Dear GOD,
If You watch me in church on Sunday,
I'll show You my new shoes.
Mickey
Dear GOD,
I bet it is very hard for You to love all of everybody
in the whole world. There are only 4 people in our family
and I can never do it.
Nan
Dear GOD,
In school they told us what You do.
Who does it when You are on vacation?
Jane
Dear GOD,
I read the Bible. What does "begat" mean?
Nobody will tell me.
Love, Alison
Dear GOD,
Are You really invisible or is it just a trick?
Lucy
Dear GOD,
Is it true my father won't get in Heaven
if he uses his bowling words in the house?
Anita
Dear GOD,
Did You mean for the giraffe to look like that
or was it an accident?
Norma
Dear GOD,
Who draws the lines around the countries?
Nan
Dear GOD,
I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church.
Is that okay?
Neil
Dear GOD,
What does it mean You are a Jealous God?
I thought You had everything.
Jane
Dear GOD,
Did You really mean "do unto others as they do unto you"?
Because if You did, then I'm going to fix my brother.
Darla
Dear God
Thank you for the baby brother,
but what I prayed for was a puppy.
Joyce
Dear GOD,
It rained for our whole vacation and is my father mad!
He said some things about You that people are not supposed
to say, but I hope You will not hurt him anyway.
Your friend,
(But I am not going to tell You who I am)
Dear GOD,
Why is Sunday school on Sunday?
I thought it was supposed to be our day of rest.
Tom L.
Dear GOD,
Please send me a pony. I never asked for anything before.
You can look it up.
Bruce
Dear GOD,
If we come back as something - Please don't let me
be Mary Horton because I hate her.
Denise
Dear GOD,
If you give me a genie like Aladdin, I will give You
anything You want, except my money or my chess set.
Raphael
Dear GOD,
I want to be just like my Daddy when I get big
but not with so much hair all over.
Sam
Dear GOD,
You don't have to worry about me.
I always look both ways.
Dean
Dear GOD,
I think the stapler is one of your greatest inventions.
Ruth M.
Dear GOD,
I think about You sometimes even when I'm not praying.
Elliott
Dear GOD,
Of all the people who work for You I like
Noah and David the best.
Rob
Dear GOD,
My brother told me about being born but it doesn't sound right.
They're just kidding, aren't they?
Marsha
Dear GOD,
I would like to live 900 years like the guy in the Bible.
Love, Chris
Dear GOD,
We read Thomas Edison made light. But in Sunday school
they said You did it. So I bet he stole your idea.
Sincerely, Donna
Dear GOD,
The bad people laughed at Noah -
"You made an ark on dry land you fool."
But he was smart, he stuck with You. That's what I would do.
Eddie
Dear GOD,
I do not think anybody could be a better GOD. Well,
I just want You to know but I am not just saying
that because You are GOD already.
Charles
Dear GOD,
I didn't think orange went with purple until
I saw the sunset You made on Tuesday.
That was cool.

A little boy opened the big and old family Bible
with fascination, and looked at the old pages
as he turned them. Suddenly, something fell out of
the Bible, and he picked it up and looked at it
closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that had
been pressed in between the pages.
"Momma, look what I found," the boy called out.
"What have you got there, dear?" his mother asked.
With astonishment in the young boy's voice,
he answered:
"I think
it's Adam's suit!"
Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother
Joel were sitting together in church.
Joel giggled, sang, and talked out loud.
Finally, his big sister had enough.
"You're not supposed to talk out loud in church."
"Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked.
Angie pointed to the back of the church and said,
"See those two men standing by the door?
They're hushers."
One Sunday in a Midwest city a young child was
"acting up" during the morning worship hour.
The parents did their best to maintain some sense of
order in the pew but were losing the battle.
Finally the father picked the little fellow up and
walked sternly up the aisle on his way out.
Just before reaching the safety of the foyer the
little one called loudly to the congregation,
"Pray for me! Pray for me!"
And this particular four-year-old prayed:
"And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive
those who put trash in our baskets."
During the minister's prayer one Sunday, there was a
loud whistle from one of the back pews.
Gary's mother was horrified. She pinched him into
silence, and after church, asked: "Gary, whatever
made you do such a thing?"
Gary answered soberly: "I asked God to teach me to
whistle...And He just then did!"
One night Mike's parents overheard this prayer.
"Now
I lay me down to rest, and hope to pass tomorrow's
test, if I should die before I wake, that's one
less test I have to take."
A little boy was overheard praying:
"Lord, if You can't make me a better boy,
don't worry about it. I'm having a real good
time like I am!"
A little boy was in a relative's wedding. As he was
coming down the aisle he would take two steps,
stop, and turn to the crowd (alternating
between bride's side and groom's side).While
facing the crowd, he would put his hands up like
claws and roar. So it went, step, step, ROAR,
step, step, ROAR all the way down the aisle.
As you can imagine, the crowd was near tears
from laughing so hard by the time he reached the
pulpit. The little boy, however, was getting more
and more distressed from all the laughing, and was
also near tears by the time he reached the pulpit.
When asked what he was doing, the child sniffed and
said,
"I was being the Ring Bear."
