God is Watching

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note and posted it on the apple tray, “Take only one, God is watching.”

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table, was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note:

“Take all you want -- God is watching the apples.”
