BONUS BLOG – Out of the Mouths of Babes

Kids can be so funny. They ask crazy questions! They will just say whatever is in their heads no matter who it burns! lol.

Adults will ask things like, ” I wonder what Jesus really looked like?”

But kids will ask, “Did Jesus have nose hair?” “Did Jesus have to take a shower every day?” “Did Jesus wear underwear?” I have heard it all I think!

I absolutely love hearing the stories! So I asked some friends to share.

HERE IS WHAT I GOT! Priceless!

A little boy named Caleb asked his mom, “When I go to Heaven can I ask God anything I want?” His mom says, “Yes!” Caleb said, “I am going to ask Him who killed President Kennedy?”  πŸ˜‚

Levi at age 8 said, β€œWe don’t need ghost stories, cause we have Holy Ghost stories!”  πŸ˜‚

A family was watching Ghost Busters together. Their oldest daughter, Brinn, asked “Is Jesus a ghost, you know cause we can’t see Him.” The mom had to have an interesting conversation about the Holy Ghost! I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall! lol πŸ˜‚

One of my friend’s granddaughter asked her mom, “Why does Jesus want everybody to die?” πŸ˜‚

A 5 year old asked their mom, “Does God love Satan?” πŸ˜‚

Lexi (my Godchild) at a year and a half, “Dear God I want a pumpkin in my pocket!”

A friend’s son was about 4 or 5 and asked, “What is God’s middle name.” She told him she didn’t think God had one, and he came back with, β€œI know it! It’s Joey!”  πŸ˜‚

A friend’s son was talking to someone and she heard this conversation: “We are not perfect – you’re not Jesus.” To which the other person replied, “Can you walk on water?” My friend’s son is very smart and he replied, “Well…I can walk on ice”  The other person had to concede, “well…lol …that is a form of water! πŸ’¦”  ***I admit that is one for the books! πŸ˜‚

A friend’s son asked, “Why do fancy schmancy churches always have windows like that?” (stained glass) πŸ˜‚

“Does God have to go to the bathroom?” πŸ˜‚

A friend had a child ask her in Sunday School, “So where are the dinosaurs at in the bible?” πŸ˜‚

A mom was asked, “Does Heaven have multiple bathrooms or just one?” hahahaha πŸ˜‚

Will, age 7, declares, “When I grow up I am going to have 7 wives.” Clay his brother, age 5, said, “You cannot do that.” Will answers with, “It is in the Bible and it says you can have plenty of wives.” His grandmother advised him that one was more than enough. πŸ˜‚

A FRIEND SHARED THESE ON HER TIMELINE: (Thank you Carol Farley for sharing these!)

3-year-old, Reese: “Our Father, Who does art in heaven, Harold is His name. Amen.” πŸ˜‚

A little boy was overheard praying: “Lord, if you can’t make me a better boy, don’t worry about it. I’m having a real good time like I am.” πŸ˜‚

A Sunday school class was studying the Ten Commandments. They were ready to discuss the last one. The teacher asked if anyone could tell her what it was. Susie raised her hand, stood tall, and quoted, “Thou shall not take the covers off the neighbor’s wife.” πŸ˜‚

After the christening of his baby brother in church, Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong. Finally, the boy replied, “That preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, and I wanted to stay with you guys.” πŸ˜‚

I had been teaching my three-year old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord’s Prayer for several evenings at bedtime, she would repeat after me the lines from the prayer. Finally, she decided to go solo. I listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word right up to the end of the prayer: “Lead us not into temptation,” she prayed, “but deliver us some E-mail.” πŸ˜‚

One particular four-year-old prayed, “And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets.” πŸ˜‚

A Sunday school teacher asked her children, as they were on the way to church service, “And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?” One bright little girl replied, “Because people are sleeping.” πŸ˜‚

A father was at the beach with his children when the four-year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore where a seagull lay dead in the sand. “Daddy, what happened to him?” the son asked. “He died and went to Heaven,” the Dad replied. The boy thought a moment and then said, “Did God throw him back down?” πŸ˜‚

A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to their six-year-old daughter and said, “Would you like to say the blessing? “I wouldn’t know what to say,” the girl replied. “Just say what you hear Mommy say,” the wife answered. The daughter bowed her head and said, “Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?” πŸ˜‚

A Sunday school teacher asked her class, “What was Jesus’ mother’s name?” One child answered, “Mary.” The teacher then asked, “Who knows what Jesus’ father’s name was?” A little boy said, “Verge.” Confused, the teacher asked, “Where did you get that?” The boy said, “Well, you know they are always talking about Verge n’ Mary. πŸ˜‚
