Kids will say the funniest things

Posted

One day, while I was sitting in my office at home, my three-year-old little girl came into my office. Kids are so observant; they take in everything you say and do. She began to look around the room and fixed her eyes on a picture of Jesus on the cross, to which she said, “Daddy, I don't want Jesus to die on the cross.” Me recognizing the childlike faith, I grabbed her and gave her a big hug and said to her, “It's ok, baby, Jesus is not dead anymore, He now lives in our hearts.” Seeing the puzzled look on her three-year-old little face as she took a few moments to take it in, she backed up and looked at me and began to poke out her stomach with several pokes and said to me, “Look, daddy, He is trying to get out.”
Although what she said gave me a big laugh, the words she spoke couldn't have been any more true. The truth is if you are a Christian, you too have Jesus on the inside of you, and He is desperately trying to get out to this lost and dying world. Someone once said, you can't be a Christian and keep it a secret. Everyone will know, because Jesus will be poking out. Is Jesus poking out of you?
“He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” -1 John 4:4
If you don't know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, please accept Him today, before it's everlasting too late.
