A couple had two little boys, ages 8 and 10, who were excessively mischievous.
The two boys were always getting into trouble and their parents could be
assured that if any mischief occurred in their town, their two young sons
were in some way involved. The parents were at their wits end as to what to
do about their sons' behavior. The mother had heard that a clergyman in
town had been successful in disciplining children in the past, so she asked
her husband if he thought that they should send the boys to speak to
the clergyman. The husband said, "We might as well. We need to do
something before something really bad happens."

The clergyman agreed to speak with the boys, but asked to see them
individually. The 8-year-old went to meet with him first. The clergyman sat the
boy down and asked him, "Where is God?" The boy made no response,
so the clergyman repeated the question in a stern tone, "Where is God?"  
Again the boy made no attempt to answer, so the clergyman raised his
voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face, "WHERE IS GOD?"
At that the boy bolted from the room and ran directly home slamming
himself in his closet.

His older brother followed him into the closet and said,"Wha happened?"
The younger brother replied, "We are in BIG trouble this time! God is missing
and they think we did it!"
