Wisdom Asks Questions

Bella Grace loves to watch her shows when she comes  home from school. She especially likes the old cartoons,  Bugs Bunny and Tom & Jerry. Yesterday, she sat on the living room floor with her blanket spread out like a picnic table cloth. Her pink bunny sat on one side and her white bear on the other. She had a small, blue espresso cup filled with sweet tea, a tiny pink plate with three ripe strawberries and a small bowl of whipped cream, the perfect tea party.

I was fixing supper in the kitchen when  a small voice asked, "Memaw, which one is Tom and which one is Jerry?" I answered, "The cat is Tom and the mouse is Jerry." She then seriously asked, "But Memaw, what if you're wrong?" I love that reply!

"...Let  the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn't receive the kingdom of God like a child will never enter it." Then he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on their heads and blessed them. Mark 10:14-16

Peace. Love, Linda
