Tonight while our family sat at the dinner table, it started raining. This small event led to some precious conversations that I couldn’t help but record, hopefully holding onto forever!
As Wy noticed it was raining she said “Mom, did you know God lives at school and he pushed the button and made it rain so the flowers could grow.” We went on to talk to each other about this statement and was quickly taken back to my Bible Study from this past Sunday.
In our study, the conversation came up about what children think God and Jesus look like- meaning, what do they picture Him looking like in their heads.
So I asked Wy and Charlie what Jesus looked like. Their response was precious and innocent.
Wylie informed me Jesus has black hair and wears a pink shirt.
Charlie went on to tell me Jesus has white hair like Santa but wears a red shirt like Spiderman.
I couldn’t help but smile. For all we know, this could be the total truth and one of these days I might be standing at the gates giggling because I am in front of a the Lord who just so happens to be wearing either a pink or red shirt.
Either way, it warmed my heart to hear my sweet babies discussing their 3 year old thoughts on Jesus and his outfit! I was thankful I could have this conversation with them. I was thankful they wanted to have this conversation with me. And I know, truth or not, The Lord above probably cracked a smile as he heard their innocent thoughts!
