Our lesson in Bible yesterday was on forgiveness.
We talked about how God has forgiven us, how our parents forgive us, and how we should forgive each other.
The lesson was pretty short so I asked the kids if they had any questions for me.
One of my kids asked why God didn't just make us in heaven so we wouldn't have to go through bad times.
Before I could respond, another said, "Because God uses the bad times to test our faith."
I was blown off my feet! He was exactly right. Who knew such wisdom could come from a 4th grader?
