Veggie Tales has taught me a lesson, well maybe a few lessons. Lesson 1: The world is more beautiful when you see it through God's eyes. If I truly want to find the good stuff in life, I'm going to have to make it my priority to see what God sees. Lesson 2: Kids need God...NOW. God didn't tell us to "train up a child in the way he should go" for no reason. We've been praying with the kids before bed for quite a while now, but talking about God's wonderful awesomeness is something that goes by the wayside in between the everyday toddler topics of juice, ABCs, crackers, animal noises, uh-ohs and 123s. Don't you worry though, I'm thinking of ways to squeeze it into the day as I think more about it. Lesson 3: Kids understand more than we give them credit for. God is not too big of a concept. I think I have a harder time understanding who God is and how merciful and gracious He is than kids do. Kids keep it simple, just like God keeps it simple. Trust in Him and let Him do the rest. God didn't say to have "faith like a child" for no reason either, right?
I think life would be more beautiful and wonderful just from learning these lessons from Veggie Tales.
