God is in Lightening McQueen and THE CAREBEAR

This was the statement from the boy.

"God is in Lightening McQueen."

What? What do you mean?

"Well, you know, at the end of the movie at the end of the race? He stops and helps the other car and lets the snarky guy win. That was God. He's in Cars. 'Cause, you know, Lightening McQueen did what Jesus would've done. Right Mom? He put somebody else ahead of himself and was looking out for someone else."

Yup, that's the boy. Right there...seeing God...everywhere.
Oh, to see with his eyes.


Later we went to a game/pizza joint. We were blessed with some tokens to spend from someone kind enough to pass them our way (love that!) and he says, "I'm gonna win something for Sissy and if I have enough leftover I'll get something."

...Sis now has a pink carebear, plastic. He's so pumped to give it to her.

Where does this kindness come from?
What makes his little boy heart overflow?
How does he see God so clearly?

It's a beautiful thing, to see God in a kid.
To see His love burst out of a little boy heart.
To see His wisdom come from a little boy mouth.
To know that this world, its all clear, to a little boy with a great God.

"You see, children loved Jesus, and they knew they didn't need to do anything special for Jesus to love them. All they needed to do was to run into his arms. And that's what they did." Jesus Storybook Bible.

Good kids come from good parents who love a good God! It's a testament to your faith that your little boy is the way he is. :)
