God Has Big Ears!

Our five-year-old granddaughter, Annaka, is asking a lot of faith questions these days according to her mother. “How can God hear everyone’s prayers?” “Why can’t we see God?” Since parent answers don’t always satisfy her curiosity, she has discovered that she has to sometimes figure them out for herself. She has decided that since God hears all our prayers, God must have big ears and thus does not want to be seen. What great wisdom!

I am glad that she realizes that God listens to little girls and maybe everything doesn’t have to be seen to be believed.

Wow! That will definitely preach! She has obviously inherited some pretty special genes. What a wonderful example of what Jesus must have been talking about when he told us to look to the little children for the standards of faith. If only those of us who consider ourselves so wise could see with the clarity of a child. Thank you for sharing this.
