Things You Can Learn From Kids

     My grandmother Lanham always said you are never to old to learn, if you stop learning you die. Yesterday I learned how to be a witness to a friend that don’t know Jesus … that don’t even believe in God … from my five year old grand daughter.

   She came to her daddy and said daddy my friend Janet don’t believe in God. He ask her why don’t she believe in God? Sophie said I don’t know but I’ll find out .. she was gone a few min. upon her return she said .. Janet said she didn’t know why she didn’t believe in God. Her dad ask what did you tell her, Sophie said I told her if she didn’t believe in God she would go to hell. Her dad started to tell her.. maybe you should tell her Jesus loves her and we do to ..but he ask what did she say? Oh, she said ok she  would believe in God because she didn’t want to go to hell.

     Now both five year old girls were happy and the grownups had learned a lesson.

    Why are we so afraid to talk to people about God? Today the sermon was about fighting the good fight of faith. I really enjoyed it. The pastor talked about do not neglect the gifts in you, fan the flame the the gift of God in you.

It takes some to be cast into the sea too know what it meant to be dry and in the ship.  As they say you don’t always know what you have until its gone.

Let us not miss the boat or allow  anyone we know to miss heaven because we are not willing to share what we have in Christ.
