"Not Knowing All the Words"
While walking through the woods one day, I was surprised to hear a child's voice. I followed the sound, trying in vain to understand the child's words. When I spotted a boy perched on a rock, I realized why his words had made no sense: He was repeating the alphabet.
"Why are you saying your ABC's so many times?" I asked him.
The child replied, "I'm saying my prayers."
I couldn't help but laugh. "Prayers? All I hear is the alphabet."
Patiently the child explained, "Well, I don't know all the words, so I give God the letters. He knows what I'm trying to say."
I KNOW THIS IS A BIT SHORT BUT….I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOUSE JUST BEFORE ALL THE GANG GETS UP……
GOD BLESS YOU ALL…
SEE YOU SUNDAY…
EMILE
