A little girl was observed by her preacher standing
outside the pre-school Sunday School classroom between Sunday School and
worship, waiting for her parents to come and pick her up for "big church." The
preacher noticed that she clutched a big storybook under her arms with the
obvious title, "Jonah and the Whale."
Feeling a little pernicious, he knelt down beside the
little girl and began a conversation. "What's that you have in your hand?", he
asked.
"This is my storybook about Jonah and the Whale," she
answered.
"Tell me something, little girl," he continued, "do you
believe that story about Jonah and that whale to be the truth?"
The little girl implored, "Why of course I believe this
story to be the truth!"
He inquired further, "You really believe that a man can
be swallowed up by a big whale, stay inside him all that time, and come out of
there still alive and OK? You really believe all that can be true?"
She declared, "Absolutely, this story is in the Bible
and we studied about it in Sunday School today!"
Then the preacher asked, "Well, little girl, can you
prove to me that this story is the truth?"
She thought for a moment and then said, "Well, when I
get to Heaven, I'll ask Jonah."
The preacher then asked, "Well, what if Jonah's not in
Heaven?"
She then put her hands on her little hips and sternly
declared, "Then YOU can ask him!"
