The Map
: The map
A father wanted to read a magazine but was being
bothered by his little
girl, Shelby. She wanted to know what the United
States looked like.
Finally, he tore a sheet out of his new magazine on
which was printed the
map of the country. Tearing it into small pieces, he
gave it to Shelby, and
said, "Go into the other room and see if you can put
this together. This
will show you our whole country today."
After a few minutes, Shelby returned and handed him
the map, correctly
fitted and taped together.
The father was surprised and asked how she had
finished so quickly.
"Oh," she said, "on the other side of the paper is a
picture of Jesus.
When I got all of Jesus back where He belonged, then
our country just came
together."
