男孩尖叫著從屋裡衝了出來，直接往家跑去，鑽進了衣櫃，並把門關上了。當他的哥哥在衣櫃中找到他時，問道：“發生了什麼事？”

小弟弟喘著氣說：“我們闖了大禍了。上帝不見了——他們認為是我們倆乾的！”

The　Boys

A　couple　had　two　little　boys；　ages　8　and　10；　who　were　excessively　mischievous。　They　were　always　getting　into　trouble　and　their　parents　knew　that；　if　any　mischief　occurred　in　their　town；　their　sons　were　probably　involved。

The　boys’　mother　heard　that　a　clergyman　in　town　had　been　successful　in　disciplining　children；　so　she　asked　if　he　would　speak　with　her　boys。　The　clergyman　agreed；　but　asked　to　see　them　individually。　So　the　mother　sent　her　8…year…old　first；　in　the　morning；　with　the　older　boy　to　see　the　clergyman　in　the　afternoon。　。　想看書來

聰明人生　第六章（4）

The　clergyman；　a　huge　man　with　a　booming　voice；　sat　the　younger　boy　down　and　asked　him　sternly；　“Where　is　God？”

The　boy’s　mouth　dropped　open；　but　he　made　no　response；　sitting　there　with　his　mouth　hanging　open；　wide…eyed。　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　and　bellowed；　“Where　is　god？”

The　boy　screamed　and　bolted　from　the　room；　ran　directly　home　and　dove　into　his　closet；　slamming　the　door　behind　him。　When　his　older　brother　found　him　in　the　closet；　he　asked；　“What　happened？”

The　younger　brother；　gasping　for　breath；　replied；　“We　are　in　Big　trouble　this　time。　God　is　missing—and　they　think　we　did　it！”
