I bet Jesus makes brilliant shadow puppets

Stewie last night at Zac's said, 'He's just really nice, isn't he?'
He was talking about Jesus and in those few simple words encapsulated the saviour, lord and creator of the world.


Yes, Jesus is really nice. Children were amongst the crowds following him and he encouraged them, cuddled them and blessed them. Children are good judges of character. They don't bother with men who talk to other adults over their heads but they do like those who play peek-a-boo or make silly faces.


Can't you just imagine Jesus after an intense discussion with a Pharisee getting down on his knees and having a serious chat with a four-year-old about the beetle he's just found? And letting the child tell him, who made the bug, all about it.


Taking an interest, encouraging, teaching, blessing. Sounds good to me.

An example followed by good teachers today.
