Chocolate Chip Cookies

Little Johnny went shopping with his mother. He loved chocolate chip cookies. Before they went into the grocery store his mother told him “You are not getting any chocolate chip cookies in this store because it will spoil your dinner.” They went through the store and he was good. But when they got to the isle where the cookies were he said “Mommy, please let me have some chocolate chip cookies.” She said, “I don’t want you to even ask. I told you before. If you ask again you are going to get it when we get outside.” Then they went down another isle. And he said, “Mommy, please let me have some chocolate chip cookies.” She said, “I told you not to ask and you are in big trouble. When we get outside you are going to get it!” She went to the end of the isle looking for something on her shopping list. Johnny stood up in the cart and shouted “In the name of Jesus can I have some chocolate chip cookies?” I don’t know whether the people felt convicted or amused but when the mother got back there were 22 boxes of chocolate chip cookies in her shopping cart.
