Prayers 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." A 4-year-old boy who was asked to
return thanks before Thanksgiving dinner. The family members bowed their heads
in expectation. He began his prayer, thanking the Lord for all his friends,
naming them one by one. Then he thanked the Lord for Mummy, Daddy, brother,
sister, Grandma, Grandpa, and all his aunts and uncles. Then he began to thank
the Lord for the food. He gave thanks for the turkey, the dressing, the fruit
salad, the cranberry sauce, the pies, the cakes, even the Cool Whip. Then he
paused, and everyone waited -- and waited. Politically correct prayer. Just do it!
