A Nun asked her class to write notes to God... Here are some of the notes they handed in:

Dear God - I didn't think orange went with purple until I saw the sunset you made on Tuesday. That was cool.

Dear God - Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones, why don't you just keep the ones you have.

Dear God - Maybe Cain and Abel would not have killed each other so much if they had their own rooms. That's what my Mom did for me and my brother.

Dear God - If you watch me in church on Sunday, I'll show you my new shoes.

Dear God - I bet it is very hard for you to love all of everybody in the world. There are only four people in our family and I'm having a hard time loving all of them.

Dear God - In school they told us what you do. Who does it when you're on vacation?

Dear God - Is it true my father won't get in Heaven if he uses his bowling words in the house?

Dear God - Did you mean for the Giraffe to look like that or was it an accident?

Dear God - Who draws the lines around the countries?

Dear God - I went to this wedding and they kissed right in the church. Is that okay?

Dear God - Did you really mean "do unto others as they do unto you?" Because if you did, then I'm gonna get my brother good.

Dear God - Thank you for the baby brother, but what I prayed for was a puppy.

Dear God - Please send me a pony. I never asked for anything before.You can look it up.

Dear God - I want to be just like my Daddy when I get big, but not with so much hair all over.

Dear God - You don't have to worry about me, I always look both ways.

Dear God - I think about you sometimes, even when I'm not praying.

Dear God - Of all the people who work for you, I like Noah and David the best.

Dear God - My brother told me about being born, but it doesn't sound right. They're just kidding, aren't they?

Dear God - I would like to live 900 years just like the guy in the Bible.

Dear God - We read Thomas Edison made light. But in Sunday School they said you did it. So, I bet he stole your idea.

The Sponges There are 5 sponges laying on your kitchen counter top. Each member of your family has been cleaning up different areas of your home, but all the sponges look the same. You are curious as to what was cleaned in your home, but you can't tell by looking...they all look the same...so what do you do?

You squeeze each sponge to see what comes out. As you squeeze the first sponge, you see that cola comes out, and so you decide that someone cleaned the kitchen with that one.

Upon squeezing the second sponge, you find tub and tile cleaner - that one was used to clean the bathroom.

Next, in the third sponge, you find motor oil - hubby was cleaning the garage!

In the fourth sponge, baby powder puffs out when it is squeezed - yep, the baby's nursery was done with that one!

And finally, in the last one, is floor wax - that was the one you used on the hall floor!

As you lay the last one down, you look again at their similarity - and they all look the same until they're squeezed. Christians are the same way. As life squeezes us, different things come out - anger from one, a need for revenge from another, tears from one, remorse from yet another - also greed, untruth, lust - and finally,

from one saint, pours forth the love of Christ.

Just like the sponge, we can only squeeze out what is put in - stay in the Word daily, and be in continuous prayer, so that when life puts the squeeze on you (and it WILL), Jesus, and Jesus ALONE will shine forth from you!

Have a blessed, squeaky clean day!ΚΚΚ --Found circulating the Net.
