"Today I Preach!" --Ben, The Random Preacher

Today Sis. Carol told Ben that he and Alex are to help give a testimony for Childrens' Church Report in the FGC (Full Gospel Church) AGM, so they're to prepare while having Friday School class. But guess what?.....

Ben heard that he had to PREACH in Friday School.

All the kids including his class teacher were already in the downstairs sanctuary waiting to get started. Then Ben walked in with a serious look on his face and his bible under his arm.....

*turns to the teacher~
Ben: You don't preach, today I preach.

The teacher just agreed and sat down at the back of the room.

Ben: Turn your bible to Genesis chapter 14 verse 1.
*pauses, points~
You, read.

Alex starts reading. After awhile....

Ben: Stop.
*points to another kid~
You read.

Another kid reads from where its left. After the reading is done...

*points~
Ben: You, tell me what did you learn from here?..... Don't know..... You?..... Don't know..... You?........ Ok, let me tell you. What we learn from here is Joseph can tell other people's dreams. Ok teacher, now you can preach.

......

Sis Victoria (the teacher) was laughing till she cried when she told my Ma about this, all the while she had been forcing herself not to laugh because Ben was so serious and she actually played along with him!
When the story was told again over dinner, Ben said he actually didn't know what to do when he was told that he had to "preach". He just went in, simply open his bible, look through a bit to know the story, and then "preach".

. . . . . .

That 6 dots above are for you to react however you want, either laugh or stare or blink or drool or have that silly dumbfounded smile on your face.

Talk about CHILD-LIKE FAITH!!!

Ben, may God bless you with more opportunities for instant preaching... *laughs hysterically~
