Where Is God?

A couple had two little boys, ages eight and ten, who were very mischievous. The two were always getting into trouble, and their parents could be assured that if any mischief occurred in their town that 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 priest in town had been successful in disciplining children in the past, so she asked her husband if he thought they should send the boys to speak with him.
 
The husband said, "We might as well. We need to do something before I really lose my temper!"
 
The clergyman agreed to speak with the boys but asked to see them individually. The eight-year-old went first. The clergyman sat the boy down and asked him sternly, "Where is God?"
 
The boy made no response, so the clergyman repeated the question in an even sterner 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 the closet. His older brother followed him into the closet and asked what had happened. The younger brother replied, "We are in big trouble this time. God is missing and they think we did it!"
