Heard Around Our 'Hood

Seth on the way home from church today:

"Mom, why did Jesus made me?"

Me:  "Because he loved you so much, Seth."

Seth:  "And then he died?"

Me:  "Yes, Jesus died for the forgiveness of our sins.  That's the bad stuff we do.  He took care of it all so we can live in heaven someday."

Seth:  "Mom, I want Jesus to hear me."

Me:  "Oh, he does hear you, Seth.  Do you talk to him?"

Seth:  "I want him in my heart."

Me:  *Heart skipping a whole bunch of beats*
Well, ....

Seth (in typical 4 year old fashion):  "Can I touch my heart on the inside?"
"Hey, look at that tunnel.  Think there's a train?"

Ahhh, it's getting in there.
Lord, keep the questions coming!
PRAISE YOU, JESUS!
