Dear God

Considering it is Holy Week, I thought it was an appropriate time to share a prayer.  This is from a seventh grade boy:

Dear God,

Thank you for the [pause] uhh, Earth.  And the floor and these recliner things.

Everyone started laughing before he got to the Amen.


I appreciate all of those things too. Amen.

don't run with scissors.

So one of the kids at church told us he isn't allowed to use scissors, not even safety scissors in half of his classes at school.  He asked if we thought this was unfair.

Considering how clumsy he is, no.

But then again, he is 14.

Safety first.
