Another Revised Joke:
A little boy got a brand new shiny red wagon for his birthday.
This little boy was so elated with his new wagon, he couldn’t wait to give it a test drive even though the ground was still soaked from a storm that had passed through.
So outdoors he went full of pride as he strolled along the dirt road in front of his home with his wagon in tow.
Yet because of the rains, his red wagon got stuck in the mud and as hard as he tugged the mud held fast to his wagon.
This child like patience gave way to is temper and he started to curse the mud, then curse the wheels on the wagon.
A priest coming up the road heard this child yelling and carrying on and said to the child.
“Mind your words and temper boy, do you know God can hear you?” The boy said, “how can he?”
The priest said, “because God is everywhere”. The boy said, “is he here?” The priest said, “yes”.
Then the boy asked, “is he in my new red wagon?” And the priest said, “yes!” Then the boy said, “well then why doesn’t he get out and push!”
The priest said, “I will help you, but I better see you in church this Sunday to ask God forgiveness for all the cursing you were doing.”
The boy asked, “why do I have to go to church to ask God?” The priest said, “because that is where God lives”.
The boy said, “I thought you said God was everywhere, so why do I need to go to church?”
The priest being outwitted by the child could say nothing else.
The moral of this quirky joke is the truth you know is best served by your own actions and not what you impose on another.
For when you do, you can always get caught in your own words, especially from the innocence of babes that move Truth so gracefully and freely.
Let not your words be of what you rhetorically impose towards others, but be the verbal celebration and affirmation of all that you do, for that is true knowing of the Truth.
All My Love
