When I asked my friend if she was planning to attend church, she just shook her head.
"I haven't gone in a long time," she said. "Besides, it's too late for me. I've probably already broken all seven commandments."
A friend of mine asked me to go to the front of his car to see if his turn signal was working.
I did and yelled out, "Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No..."
The minister's little six-year-old girl had misbehaved during the week. Her mother decided to give her a punishment. She told her she couldn't go to the Sunday School Picnic on Saturday.
When the day came, her mother felt she had been too harsh and changed her mind. When she told the little girl she could go to the picnic, the child's reaction was one of gloom and unhappiness.
"What's the matter? I thought you'd be glad to go to the picnic." her mother said.
"It's too late!" the little girl said. "I've already prayed for rain."
