A Simple Dinner That Turned Into an Unforgettable Moment
Last week, I took my grandchildren out to a restaurant for dinner. It was supposed to be a simple, quiet meal.
Before the food arrived, my six-year-old grandson looked up at me with bright eyes and asked politely, “Grandpa, can I say grace?”
Of course, I said yes.
Everyone at the table bowed their heads as the little boy clasped his hands together and began his prayer.
A Prayer That Made the Whole Restaurant Listen
In his sweet, innocent voice he said:
“God is good, God is great.
Thank you for the food… and I would thank you even more if Grandpa gets us ice cream for dessert.
And liberty and justice for all. Amen!”
For a brief moment there was silence.
Then soft laughter rippled through the nearby tables. A few people smiled at the child’s sincerity.
But not everyone was amused.
