This should make you smile

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous. They are
always getting into trouble and their parents know all about it. If any
mischief occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved. The
boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in
disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.

The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually. So the
mother sent the 8 year old first, in the morning, with the older boy to
see the preacher in the afternoon.

The preacher, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down
and asked him sternly, 'Do you know where God is, son?'

The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there
wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open. So the preacher repeated the
question in an even sterner tone, 'Where is God?!' Again, the boy made
no attempt to answer.

The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the
boy's face and bellowed, 'Where is God?!'

The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & dove into
his closet, slamming the door behind him.

When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, 'what
happened?'
The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, 'We are in BIG trouble
this time. (I just LOVE reading this next line again and again)


'GOD is missing, and they think we did it!'
