(This morning during a conversation with Levi about
Jesus aka the Coolest/Biggest/Fastest Super Hero of all time)
Levi: Is Jesus bigger than God?
Me: Well, he is God's Son so he is probably smaller, but he is still as powerful because/(insert abrupt interruption)
Levi: Oh yeah! I know cuz it's Jesus, God and the Whole Spirit. They are like three Gods but they are really one.
Me: How did you know that? (We have never talked about the trinity. I felt the topic was too hard to understand, and frankly, it never came up).
Levi: Drew told me.
How cool is it to know that my 4 year old and his 5 year old cousin are having theological discussions in their spare time?
And this is a glimpse of "child-like" faith. He didn't get all caught up in the magnitude of the trinity being three-in-one. He just heard the information and accepted it. Not worrying about the probability of it all! Each day I am blown away by how having children in my life has allowed God to speak to me in new and awesome ways. I say that not to say that I hope he blindly takes in all information (even of the biblical variety). I hope that he questions and seeks Godly council and dives into the Word to have truth revealed, but child-like faith accepts the truth of what is in God's word and then as we grow and understand more, we get the details.
