Where Is God?
==============
A couple had two little boys, ages 8 and 10, who were
excessively mischievous.
The two were always getting into trouble and their parents could
be assured that if any mischief occurred in their town their two
young sons were in some way involved. The parents were at their
wits end as to what to do about their sons' behavior.
The mother had heard that a clergyman in town had been
successful in disciplining children in the past, so she asked
her husband if he thought they should send the boys to speak
with the clergyman. The husband said, "We might as well.
We need to do something before I really lose my temper!"
The clergyman agreed to speak with the boys but asked to see
them individually.
The 8-year-old boy went to meet with him first. The clergyman
sat the boy down and asked him sternly, "Where is God?"
The boy made no response, so the clergyman repeated the question
in an even sterner tone, "Where is God?"
Again the boy made no attempt to answer, so the clergyman raised
his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face,
"WHERE IS GOD?"
At that, the boy bolted from the room and ran directly home and
hid in his closet.
His older brother followed him into the closet and said,
"What happened?"
The younger brother replied,
"We are in BIG trouble this time.
God is missing and they think we did it!"
