Little Johnny Teaches His Entire Family A Lesson On Praying Before You Eat

Little Johnny and his family often traveled to visit his grandmother for meals during the holiday season and special events Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

One day, Little Johnny and his family were having Sunday dinner at his Grandmother’s house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.

When Little Johnny received his plate, he started eating right away. “Johnny! Please wait until we say our prayer.” said his mother.

“I don’t need to,” the boy replied.

“Of course, you do” his mother insisted. “We always say a prayer before eating at our house.”

“That’s at our house.” Johnny explained. “But this is Grandma’s house and she knows how to cook.”
