Aidan, April 10, 1010

while driving Aidan to Will Marty's birthday party:

Aidan said, "Mommy, guess where Jesus is?"

"Where"

"He's EVERYWHERE!!!! He's up in space, he's in heaven, he's over there and over here. He's even in here!" (Pointing at himself)

"That's right Aidan! Jesus IS everywhere"

"Yep." he said, "and that's how I know that if you die or Dady dies or Evan dies or my little sister baby Meagan dies that they will be everywhere too! Because you guys will be with Jesus!"

We are in a play for the upcoming missions conference that involves showing the differences between the five major religions of the world and the hope that Christ brings in the midst of all the confusion. We took the kids to rehearsal with us. When the 'unreligious' character stood up and said "There is no God, there is no heaven" Aidan called out, "Yes, there IS a heaven!" And came over and whispered to me, "there is a heaven mommy!" I explained to him that it was pretend and that the lady was acting like someone who didn't believe in Jesus and that in a little bit I was going to pretend to be a Christian and tell about Jesus. He then said, "But that's not pretend, Mommy. That's REAL!"
