Children and God

They say children and God know each other well. Sometimes the concept on an all-mighty Creator may be a bit hard to grasp. Someone has collected these wonderful, funny comments from children to God. I got this by email and wish to share the smiles with you too.

Children and God have a good relationship

Children and God are a good combination - to teach our children there is a benevolent, loving energy looking after them gives a feeling of security to our small ones.

Also children and God seem to be capable of conversations we adults could learn from - there is complete trust in good, still not forgetting the humor! Personally I believe God has 
the greatest sense of humor - and children and God know it.
