Knock, Knock...
A
nurse on the pediatric ward, before listening to the
little ones' chests, would plug the stethoscope into
their ears and let them listen to their own hearts.
Their eyes would always light up with awe, but she never
got a response equal to four-year-old David's comment.
Gently she tucked the stethoscope into his ears
and
placed the disc over his heart.
"Listen," she said
......... "What do you suppose that is?" ,
He
drew his eyebrows together in a puzzled line and looked
up as if lost in the mystery of the strange
tap-tap-tapping deep in his chest.
Then his face broke out in a wondrous grin, and he
asked,
"Is that Jesus knocking?"
