Bedtime Prayers
(No Ratings Yet)
Loading ...A father put his young son to bed every night, and to make sure he said his prayers, the father waited outside the bedroom door and listened. Each night the boy ended his prayers with “God bless mommy, daddy, the dog and the cat.”
One day the cat scratched the little boy and that night he finished his prayers, “God bless mommy, daddy and the dog.”
The next morning when the family awoke they found the cat dead.
A few days later the dog bit the little boy. That night he ended his prayers, “God bless mommy and daddy.”
The next morning when the family awoke, they found the dog dead.
Several days later the boy got in trouble at school and his dad chewed him out and grounded him for a week.
That night as his dad listened outside the door the boy finished his prayers, “God bless mommy.”
The father was really concerned in light of what had happened to the cat and dog. He decided to sit up all night in the living room with the lights on so nothing would happen to him.
As the family began to stir the next morning, the father much relieved went to the door to get the milk.
There on the porch he found the milkman, dead.
