The preacher's 5 year-old daughter noticed that her preacher father always paused and bowed his head for a moment before starting his sermon. One day she asked him why.

The Pastor was so proud that his daughter was so observant of his mesages. He smiled and answered, "Well, honey, "I'm asking the Lord to help me to preach a good sermon!“

The little girl thought about it for a moment and then she said, "Well then, how come He doesn't do it?"

OUCH.
