Getting the Pieces Right

A father wanted to read a magazine, but was being pestered by his daughter. To keep her busy, he tore a sheet out of the magazine that had a picture of the world printed on it. He tore the picture into small pieces and said "Here, now go into the other room and see if you can put this picture of the world back together again."

A few minutes goes by and the daughter appears in the room and hands him the picture all correctly fitted together. The father was surprised and ask her how she was able to fit all those little pieces of the world back together again so quickly.

"Oh . . ." she said, "On the other side of the paper was a picture of Jesus and once I got Jesus in the right place, then the world came out all right."
