Let the little children....

A disciplinary situation with Judah over his unkindness to Jamie turns into a 20 minute grilling (that is, him grilling me) on the nature of Sin in the World, Christ's Victory over Sin and Why Does the Lord Tarry?

Judah: "If Jesus conquered sin and death, why is dere still sin?"

Also,

"I wish sin didn't izist."

And, upon hearing about the eventual arrival of the Conquering Christ, 

"I wish that Jesus would come NOW."

Me too, son, me too.

Sometimes I feel quite inadequate to parent this boy. I think maybe I need a seminary degree....

Explaining free will + God's omnipotence to kids is SO hard. So, so hard....
