A fellow blogger CREATIVE TYPE DAD
posted the following story on his blog which is much more than cute. It has deep seeds of truth in it. His daughter is 5 or 6 years old.
"One big thing we do every year there is attend something called the Candlelight Procession at Ecpot. Which is rather nice show of tradition Christmas music with local youth and church choirs from around Florida and some celebrity narrator. Our celebrity was Whoopi Goldberg.When Whoopi was talking my daughter somehow figured out that the baby everybody was talking about was the same Jesus that's dead and bleeding on the cross. During the performance she yelled at the wife and I, “Oh no! They killed the baby!!”It seems like since we’ve been back I'll I've been doing is answering questions about why they killed the baby."
Yes beloved , the cute cuddly baby Jesus we were oohing ashing over at Christmas was brutally executed today on Good Friday , 33 years after his birth.
All babies are born to live
But this baby was born to die.
And I am glad He died. The spotless Lamb of God paid the penalty for my sin. The Bible says in Hebrews 9;22" without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins".
6 Fertilize my soul:
That little girl was very perceptive.
Very sweet to see the sign-language singing!
Indeed, they killed the innocent, so that we might live.
But He conquered the death and resurrected the third day.
Hallelujah!
What a touching story. That little child could not believe what happened to Jesus. All during childhood I would think about Jesus saying suffer little children to come unto me and I would think Jesus understands what is happening, even if nobody else does. That gave me a lot of comfort. Children love Jesus.
Amrita, the task of Jesus is not yet complete until His followers do their best to entice people to accept Him as their Lord and savior and surrender their lives to Him thereby assuring themselves of eternal life with Him in heaven. As the Bible says, "the harvest is plentiful but the reapers are few. Let us pray that the Lord of harvest send more reapers to gather the harvest." Let us all pray and do our share to convince people to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and savior and be born again. It is the intention of the Lord that "none should perish." Thanks for the inspired post and video. God bless you always.
Touching story, the Lord was born to die so that we might live in the fullest.
Have an enjoyable Easter break.
Yes friends sometimes children pronounce the profoundest truths.
