A Little One's Thoughts

I just have a little story I would like to share about Ben today. A few months ago, I had the privilege and joy to lead Ben in receiving Jesus into his heart. I can't tell you what pure joy it is to be apart of this decision with your children. Anyway, Ben is very thoughtful and today we were talking about hearts. Ben said to me, "Is Jesus knocking inside our hearts to get out?" I said no, he just stays there. Ben then asked, "Is there blood in our hearts?" I said yes. Then he said, "Doesn't Jesus get blood all over him?" So, at that point I tried to explain that Jesus is really a spirit and when we say He lives in our hearts, it actually means that Jesus is apart of our lives and we fully trust in Him. I'm sure with his faith and thoughtfulness that Ben will understand this concept in no time. Praise the Lord!
