·        Adam’s Suit

 

·        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!”

·        God’s Creation

 

·        At Sunday School they were teaching how God created everything,

·        including human beings.  Little Johnny, a child in the Kindergarten

·        class, seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was

·        created out of one of Adam’s ribs.

 

·        Later in the week his mother noticed him lying down as though he

·        were ill, and said, “Johnny what is the matter?”

 

·        Little Johnny responded, “I have a pain in my side.  I think I’m going

·        to have a wife.”

·        Being Jesus

 

·        A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5, Ryan, 3.

·        The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.

·        Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.

 

·        “If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, ‘Let my brother have the

·        first pancake.  I can wait.’”

 

·        Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, “Ryan, you be Jesus!”

·        Love Your Sibling As Yourself

 

·        A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments

·        with her five and six year olds.  After explaining the commandment to

·        “honor thy father and thy mother,” she asked  “Is there a commandment

·        that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?”

 

·        Without missing a beat, one little boy answered, “Thou shall not kill.”

·        Picture of God

 

·        A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while

·        they drew.  She would occasionally walk around to see each child’s

·        artwork.  As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she

·        asked what the drawing was.

 

·        The girl replied, “I’m drawing God.”

 

·        The teacher paused and said, “but no one knows what God looks like.”

 

·        Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied,

·        “They will in a minute.”

·        Bravery

 

·        One summer evening, during a violent thunderstorm, a mother was tucking

·        her small boy into bed.  She was about to turn off the light when he asked

·        with a tremor in his voice, “Mommy will you sleep with me tonight?”

 

·        The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. “I can’t dear, I have to

·        sleep in daddy’s room.”

 

·        A long silence was broken at last by his shaking little voice,

·        “The big sissy.”
