Lessons in Faith

The girls have really been putting my knowledge of my faith to the test lately.  "How did Jesus die?"  "Why did Jesus die?"  "What does God look like?"  I try my best to answer their questions but it's very hard to put such deep questions into terms that a four and seven year old can understand. In my heart, the answers are easy, but to put them into words is much harder.  Grace often tells me, "Mommy, I miss Jesus," and yesterday she told me, "Mommy, your Auntie died just like Jesus died."  She said it so perfectly, my Aunt truly was one of the most Christ-like people. They have such pure little hearts that teach me so much more than I could ever teach them.
