Two little boys

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous.

They are always getting into trouble and their parents know if any
mischief occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved.

The boys'' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in
disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.
The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually.

The mother sent the 8 year old in the morning, with the older boy to
see the preacher in the afternoon. The preacher, a huge man with a deep
booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, " Do you
know where God is, son?"

The boy''s mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there
wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.
So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, " Where is
God?! Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his
voice even more and shook his finger in the boy''s face and bellowed,
" WHERE is GOD?!"

The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & 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!" " GOD is missing, and they think WE did it!"
