Friday’s Funnies takes a look at a Prophetic Prayer.
Kneeling beside his sweet daughter by her bed, the proud father was listening to his young daughter say her nightly prayers.
The daughter concluded her prayers as she always did with one troubling exception:
“God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma” and then she said, “Good bye Grandpa.”
The father, believing he had misheard his daughter, thought nothing of it and within a few hours he drifted off into slumber land.
The next day at work the father received a troubling phone call from his mom. “Son, your dad passed away this morning!”
After the shock wore off he could not help but think about his daughter and her prophetic prayer!
Months passed and the father continued to kneel beside his daughter each night to listen to her sweet prayers always concluding with the typical “God bless …..”
One night the daughter ended her prayers with, “God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy and Good bye Grandma.”
Sure enough, the next day the father’s Mom passed away.
And once again, the father could not help but think of his daughter’s prophetic prayer!
Many more months passed by without incident until one night the daughter ended her sweet prayer with, “God bless Mommy and Good bye Daddy.”
The father went to bed but could not sleep!
He spent the whole night formulating a plan on how he would stay alive.
When morning came, the father left for work extra early so as to avoid any traffic.
Upon arriving at the office building, he barricaded himself in his corner office, cancelling all appointments, taking no calls and definitely not taking any visitors.
The day passed by ever so slowly.
The father watched the clock all day long, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour until finally at 12:01 am, he breathed a huge sigh of relief!
He had made it through the day… Alive!!
He jumped in his car and turned up the radio and joyfully made his way home!
Upon entering the front door, his wife came at him like a raging bull, “Where in the heck have you been all day? Where were you? Why didn’t you call?”
The father interrupted her and said, “Honey, you don’t know what kind of day I’ve had…”
Before he could continue the wife blurted out, “No, no, no… You don’t know what kind of day I’ve had! The mailman dropped dead on the front porch this morning!!”
Have a blessed and humorous Friday!
Watch out for the Prophetic Prayer!!
Laugh often and Fear not!
David!
We are on the road to Branson Missouri and got a big laugh about the little girl’s prayer. You never cease to amaze us. Have a wonderful week. The Zahn’s
