Children's Prayer | 孩童的祈祷

点击查看中英对照

Two young boys were spending the night at their grandparents' house. At bedtime, as they knelt beside their beds to say their prayers, the younger boy began praying at the top of his lungs:

"I PRAY FOR A BICYCLE... I PRAY FOR A NEW NINTENDO... I PRAY FOR A NEW VCR..."

His older brother leaned over, nudged him, and whispered, "Why are you shouting your prayers? God isn't deaf."

To which the little brother replied, "No, but Grandma is!"
