God is Watching

I ran across this while web surfing this morning here, and I thought it was so funny I wanted to share it:


Thanks to Steve Brown in his book Scandalous Freedom: I am reminded of a convent school where a basket of apples sat on the dining room table. A note under the basket said, "Take only one. God is watching."

At the other end of the dining room sat another basket filled with chocolate-chip cookies. In a child's handwriting, a note under the basket read: "Take all the cookies you want. God is watching the apples."
