Billy’s Prayer

Billy had been misbehaving and was sent to his room.  After a while he emerged and informed his mother that he had thought it over and then said a prayer.

“Fine”, said the pleased mother.  “If you ask God to help you not misbehave, He will help you.”

“Oh, I didn't ask Him to help me not misbehave,” said Billy.  “I asked Him to help you put up with me.”
