This little fellow (who wasn't entirely certain about the frosting
on the bite of cake I offered him) represents one of the best parts of
my months at home since completing the cross-cultural ministry training
with New Tribes Mission in May. It has been an absolute joy babysitting
him and his wee sister twice a week while their parents are at work.
It has also been a tremendous responsibility and opportunity to teach
him the truths of God's word. Although not yet three, he is a sponge
and takes in absolutely everything I say and do. "Monkey see, monkey
do?" That's him.
Along similar lines, I've also had the privilege of teaching the
story/lesson to the Sparks in our Awana program. At ages K-2nd they are
little sponges as well, and I love watching them grasp the concepts
about God we've been talking about the last month or so.
Hiding God's word in their hearts.
"Who can tell me what a rubber band reminds us about God?"
Off to game time.
It was Crazy Hair Night. Just in case you couldn't tell. :)
