A young boy came home from school with a stuffed animal. His father asked him where the toy came from. He answered, “I won it at our class Valentine party.”
“How did you win it?” the father asked.
“Well,” he explained, “the teacher put all our names together, and then picked one out. I cheated, though,” he confessed, with a guilty look on his face.
“How did you cheat?”
“I prayed!”
At least the boy has a high view of the power of prayer.
“…The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.”—James 5:16.
