God Is Watching

The students were lined up in the cafeteria for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples.

The nun made a note， and posted on the apple tray： "Take only one. God is watching."

Moving further along the lunch line， at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note， "Take all you want. God is watching the apples."
