So, I was eavesdropping on a conversation among several of my students yesterday afternoon during dismissal:
Student 1: So, sometimes I have some really big questions. Like, who put Jesus on Earth?
Student 2 (in a very matter-of-fact way): God. (Like, doesn't everyone know that?! C'mon!)
Student 1, 3, and 4: Oh...yeah.
Student 1: Well, what about who put God on Earth?
Students 2-4 (very pensively, heads nodding): Hmmm...
Students 1-5: silence
Students 1-5: all eyes and heads slowly turn to me (the pastor's wife)
Me: Well, you know "they" say that God is the beginning and the end. Guess that means he was here first, before anything else. Huh? (I leave it at that and hope that this one comment doesn't put my career in jeopardy!)
Don't you just love it?
