My daughter asked, 'is God a giant? Can SHE get onto the bus? Can SHE come to my house?'
And after a while, she said, 'I like God. Mummy, do you like God?' I said, 'Yes, I love God.' Then she said, 'What about the rest of the people, do they like God?' I said, 'Not everyone.' And she asked, why?
Spiritual education for my 3 year old is proving to be more difficult than teaching anyone I have ever taught! :-) But it is certainly good training for me. If I can help a three year old understand, I am sure I can do it for anyone. My daughter and I had an hour chat about God and interestingly, she kept referring to God as a SHE! Smart girl, eh? lol!
Anyway, by the end of our conversation, she has kind of grasped the idea of soul traveling. She asked her daddy what colour fairy/angel would he like to 'zoom' with to God's house when he sleeps tonight.
I don't know about her, but I sure had fun in our hour long chat.
