I comment on how gorgeous the sunrises are most mornings or I might just simply say "Dear Lord thank you for this beautiful morning."
This morning I said, "Look how the clouds are sprinkled across the sky."
Colby says, "Do you know what clouds like that make me think of?"
Me: "What?"
Colby: You see how the bottoms are dark. I think that represents the darkness and evil in the world. There's a lot it scattered all around. And the sun represents God. The sun is touching all of the clouds, just like God touches all of us... and just like when God touches us and changes us, the sun changes the dark clouds to light."
Me (holding back tears) "You're right, son. What a beautiful analogy!"
I'll never look at scattered dark clouds quite the same again...
That kid! :) :) :)
