THIS IS FAITH

The minister's little six-year-old girl had been so naughty during the week, that her mother decided to give her the worst kind of punishment. She told her she couldn't go to the Sunday school Picnic on Saturday.

Then, when the day came, her mother felt she had been too harsh and changed her mind. When she told the little girl she could go to the picnic, the child's reaction was one of gloom and sadness.

"What's the matter? I thought you'd be glad to go to the picnic!" her mother said.

"But it's too late!" said the little angel. "I've already prayed for rain!"

I always love to hear the responses of children. I find most of them very interesting because they can be so serious and you really don't want to hurt their feelings by laughing. Sometimes though it is next to impossible not to. To everyone that has children out there I say enjoy them because soon they will grow up too quickly.
