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 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."
