You know what's so affirming as a mother? Pieces of faith being demonstrated in my children. I always wonder if I teach and live by example enough to demonstrate Christ to my wee ones. My heart was warmed today on the drive to church. Wesley started asking questions about God. Who is he? Where does he live? How come I can't see him?
I didn't even get a chance to respond when Lizzi pipped up.
"Wesley, you know about germs right?"
"Yes"
"Well Wesley, God is like germs, you can't see him but you can see what He does!"
She continued to explain to him that we can see God in everything all around us.
"Look Wesley, we can see God working right now because He's making it rain!"
"Oh!" Came his excited reply.
I smiled all the way to church, and through church. In fact as I sit here typing this, my heart is still smiling to know that my children have child like faith.
Matt 19:14
Jesus said "Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children."
