When Neal gets to be home before the girls bedtime, it is always his job to put the girls to bed. He loves to use this time to tell them Bible Stories, to work on Bible Knowledge stuff, to sing and pray with them.
Tonight he was talking to them about the purpose of the Bible and the purpose of the Church. I'm pretty sure that he was trying to convey how important God's people are...how important the stories in the Bible are to us...and what we do at church because we are God's people.
Neal: What do we do at church?
Ellie: We eat and sit and sing and listen...ooooh and we PAINT!
Ahhh...how important it is that God's people paint. :)
She came home Sunday with the cutest green painted handprint with the words "God loves me" on it.
Hmmmm...maybe we DO need to paint. :)
I bet if we all kept ourselves busy painting, there'd be a lot less time for...other stuff.
ReplyDeleteI think we forget that the creative play teaches as much as the lesson does.
ReplyDeleteAren't we supposed to become as children to gain heaven?
