Rev. Warren J. Keating, Pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of
Yuma, Arizona, says that the best prayer he ever heard was "Lord,
please make me the kind of person my dog thinks I am."
A woman went to the post office to buy stamps for her Christmas cards.
"What denomination?" asked the postal clerk. "Oh, good heavens! Has
it come to this?" said the woman. "Well, give me 50 Baptist and 50
Catholic ones."
A student was asked to list the 10 Commandants in any order. His
answer: 3, 6, 1, 8, 4, 5, 9, 2, 10, 7.
I was on the beach with my children when my four-year old son ran up
to me, grabbed my hand and led me to the shore, where a seagull lay
dead in the sand. "Mummy, what happened to him? my son asked. "He
died and went to Heaven." I replied. My son thought a moment and then
said, "And God threw him back down?"
My wife invited some people to dinner. At the table she turned to our
six year old daughter and said: "Would you like to say the blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied. "Just say what you
hear Mummy say." my wife answered. Our daughter bowed her head and
said: "Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people over?"
Over the massive front doors of a church these words were inscribed.
"The Gate of Heaven". Below that was a small cardboard sign which
read - "Please use other entrance."
