I very much doubt that God would take the time to answer such a frivolous request. Luck however, falls into our laps from time to time. I believe this is what happened this time. I am sure that as a parent, you struggle to teach your child/children not to waste God's time with prayers for something as trivial as curly fries.

I hate to say it, but I don't blame him for praying for curly fries. At least he offered a heartfelt prayer and not a full blown temper tantrum. Your story was cute. I love hearing about real life encounters and everyay life. Great writing. Gretchen

I really laughed at this little story. I am loving this project so far. I remember praying for some silly things when I was a child. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

That's such a precious memory! Thank you for sharing that, Barbara. I was rooting for Mom all the way as I could have imagined your frustration but God heard Steven's prayer and may he always remember how God answered! Appreciate your kind mention of my story, too!

Thank you for the kind review. Steven does know God answers prayers. He's witnessed it many times.
Comment from judiverse
It's amazing how often we're inspired by what someone else has said or written. It's great when that happens. Steven was at an age when kids want what they want when they want it. I think you were right in refusing him, as he had said he didn't want curly fries. His solution was great. Try the gumball machine. He must have known it offered a chance to get free curly fries. I agree with you it isn't appropriate to pray for things like curly fries. The prayer being answered this time may lead to disappointment if another prayer isn't answered. judi

Barbara,
I love this story.
I've never had kids of my own but was a doting aunt. Your comical non-fiction is sweet and reminds me of my nieces and nephews and greats-. They often opened my eyes in good ways too!
Exceptional story, Barbara.
Best wishes,
Blessings,
Cindy

This is a really cute story. It doesn't seem like the proper thing to pray about but who is to say his prayer wasn't answered. I've seen my children pray prayers with results that left me scratching my head in wonder.
