Grandsons are helpful...


Sunday while looking over lesson notes my grandson came into the room and wanted me to draw on his magna doodle (it's like an etch a sketch).  I said to him papa have to read these notes before class not now, as he began to walk out I said come here, wha cha got let's play.  I told him I was going to draw him so he need to look at me, hold your head up, you can't see it yet, look at me, hold your head up, you can't see it yet, uuuuh yea.  That when on the whole time I drew, and he tried as much as could to see how a was drawing him. Oh yea my grandson is going on 3.  Well when I finished I showed him how I drew him, his face went from a smile to a stun look.  I said that's you he said that's not me and erased it.  Later when teaching in class one of the points that was made was, if we look at God or put Him in any way that He is not, that is Idolatry, that is if we set our mind on anything that we say is God and the Bible doesn't line up with that, that is Idolatry.  Nevertheless my point is later on that day I said, thank you God for showing me an example that was better than the notes I had, I didn't get it till later but I got it.  If my grandson who is 3 looks stun, becomes upset of a picture that I painted of him and it is not him as he sees and knows it to be, how much more will God be with all of us, when we paint a picture of Him and He doesn't say that is who He is?
