Minister Melton: Cali! Is there something you want to share?
Cali: No sorry Minister Melton
Melton: Can you tell us what you learned from Sunday’s sermon?
Cali: Uh… well… That-
Me: That we can sometimes be like the prodigal son. Straying away from God but soon after coming to our senses and going back home to the place of worship. That’s what you were saying right Cali?
Cali: Yes… exactly
Melton: Wow Cali well done and Meesha great delivery! I’m proud. So now guys going back to the word…

Me: Don’t I always. You seriously need to master the art of whispering
