Reading the Bible w/ the little superheros
One of the things I've missed out on in recent years is reading the Bible w/ the kids regularly. In the midst of the busyness of life, laziness, priorities, and homeschooling (they do Bible for school, thus not needing it at night), it has just continued to elude us. What a blessing it's been recently. It's really amazing how much they grasp and how one question leads to another. The other nite, Genesis led to questions of obedience (as the a big part of the original sin), evolution, and salvation. In response to a question that came up that I couldn't answer (of course, there are many), I mused that maybe Gma Harvey now knows the answer. Emily, not missing a beat, said "Yeah, or xxxxx". When I replied that I wasn't sure whether he/she had accepted Jesus, once again, w/o missing a beat she said "Why didn't you tell him/her?". If it was only that simple, however to a great degree, she's right. There's an urgency, time is not always a luxury we have. Who do you have to tell? Do you have the guts? It's not always so easy is it?
