This is a cute story which I received this week from Jim's sister, Melvene:

THIS IS SO PRECIOUS & CUTE!

A Sunday school teacher asked her class, "What was Jesus' mother's name?"

Little Suzy answered, "Mary."

The teacher then asked, "Who knows what Jesus' father's name was?"

Little Johnny said, "Verge."

Confused, the teacher asked, "Where did you get that?"

And Johnny answered, "Well, you know, they are always talking about

Verge n' Mary."

Aren't kids cute? They tell you what they know and what they think they know.

I thought as I read it, "I wonder if God ever has to chuckle because of what we think or tell others that is so far off of what is true. But we are repeating what we think we know, read, or heard."

Dear Father in Heaven: Thank you for making us your little children. Thank you for all the things we know, for all the things that we think we know, and all the things we are learning. Thanks for laughing with us and not at us. Thank you for always teaching us, guiding us, understanding us, and loving us. In the name of Jesus who loves us enough to die for us so that we can live, love, and laugh forever. Amen
