"Dear Lord," began a visiting minister during his offertory prayer, with arms extended and a rapturous look on his upturned face, "without you we are but dust…"
He would have continued, but at that moment one little girl leaned over to her mother and asked quite audibly in her shrill little girl voice, "Mommy, WHAT is butt dust?"
Church was pretty much over at that point…
kay this actually made me laugh.
*laughs* God bless the little children. My niece did something very similar once. The pastor of the church they were attending was closing an unusually long sermon, and said something like, “…let’s close in prayer”.
At this point, my adorable niece in a very emphatic voice said, “AMEN!”. *grins* What can you say after that?
I could see one of my granddaughters saying that. Very cute!
