*Snippets that I managed to type out on my cell phone midway through his prayer, trying to be as discreet as possible to capture as much genuineness of his 6-year-old-ness. Thank you, Lord–that I can be here to witness this sweet, honest moment.
Dear God,
Thank you for books and TV.
You created the whole universe! There is no one that is more powerful than you.
You are 3 in 1. It’s kind of hard to understand, though. Is it like you have three heads? (long pause) No…well, I guess we’ll just find out when we get to heaven, where we will worship you forever.
You made all of these things on earth. On day 1 you created day and night. On days 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, you made the rest of the world. On the 7th day, you rested.
You knew we were gonna be sinful when you made us. We all sin. We do not deserve to be called your children. But you still love us. Thank you for loving us.
In Jesus’ name I pray,
Amen.
–S, 6 y/o, at bedtime tonight.
