There are times when I think of how difficult it is to teach the very basic theology to a 6-yo child. But God has proven that He will always be with us when we are doing His work.
Because we are learning Sonlight as our homeschool curriculum, we are learning very basic theology about human and God as our bible lesson. I loveeee how they have packed these lessons in a very understandable lesson day by day.
We learn about who we are as human, how we have fallen into sins, how badly we need a savior, Jesus as the Son of God, how He saved us, how we are new creations in Him, and so on.
So one fine afternoon, during our lunch time, he told me something that amazed me so.
S : "Mummy, do you know the story about The Samaritan?"
M : "Yes, why?"
S : "I am thinking about it. The Samaritan who helped the wounded Israelite. Do you know that it's God who put in his heart to help? It's God's love in his heart that makes him able to love the Israelites."
M : (quite surprised with his understanding) "Did you just learn this in Sunday School?"
S : "No. I just thought about it. So when I can share and love others, it means God's love is in my heart."
His Words certainly never comes back in vain. Although a lot of times, we might be tired, but God will strengthen us. It is only by His grace...
