Where Is God?

A couple had two little boys, ages 8 and 10, who were

excessively mischievous. They were always getting into

trouble and their parents knew that, if any mischief occurred

in their town, their sons were probably involved.

They boys' mother heard that a clergyman in town had been

successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would

speak with her boys. The clergyman agreed, but asked to

see them individually. So the mother sent her 8-year-old

first, in the morning, with the older boy to see the clergyman

in the afternoon.

The clergyman, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the

younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Where is God?"

They boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response,

sitting there with his mouth hanging open, wide-eyed. So

the clergyman repeated the question in an even sterner

tone, "Where is God!!?"

Again the boy made no attempt to answer. So the clergyman

raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the

boy's face and bellowed, "WHERE IS GOD!?"

The boy screamed and bolted from the room, ran directly

home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind

him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he

asked, "What happened?"

The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in

BIG trouble this time, dude. God is missing - and they think

WE did it!
