I Will Do Anything

Mrs. Markowitz was walking along the beach with her grandson when suddenly a wave came and washed

the three year old boy out to sea. “Oh, Lord!” cried the women. “If you will just bring that

boy back alive I’ll do anything! I’ll be the best person! I’ll give to charity! I’ll go to

temple! Please, God! Send him back!” At that moment, a wave washed the child back up on the sand,

safe and sound. His grandmother looked at the boy and then up to the Heavens. “Okay!” she

exclaimed, “So where’s his hat?”
