The Lord works in mysterious ways!
Kneeling in front of the statue of Our Lady in church, the elderly woman prayed aloud with loud tears and sighs, "Oh, Most Holy Mother of God, please help me. My gas and electric bill is due and I need $100. I have no money. Please help me. Please beg Your Son to send some money my way." She continued on this way for some time.
Meanwhile, a "business man" of the criminal sort came into the church, and knelt down a short distance from the lady. He also talked to God, "Ok,... I need some money for my "business venture"....say, around $500 G's would help me out. I know You and me ain't exactly been too close lately, but I would really appreciate You helpin' me out."
He soon grew annoyed at the elderly lady, who was getting louder and a bit more insistent with her prayers. Finally, losing his temper, he went over to the woman, and said, "Here's a hundred bucks! Now quit botherin' the Lord and get atta here!"
Grandma was so proud when her 3-year-old granddaughter asked if she could say a prayer before dinner. With all the sincerity that only a 3-yr-old can muster, the little girl folded her hands, closed her eyes and said,
"Dear Lord, please make Grandma's food be good. Amen."
Isn't that the way it goes sometimes? God really does work in strange ways.
love the granny one too!
