As I was tucking Morgan into bed tonight I told her the story of David and Goliath. I made sure that Morgan knew that Goliath was bad and David was little but God was going to protect him and use him. And as I was wrapping up what I thought was a brilliant job of making an OT story theologically understandable to a three-year old when she looked at me square in the eyes and said, "yeah, but God loves Goliath."
I had no clue what to say after that. Kids have a better grasp on things than we think sometimes. Morgan wasn't silent very long though. She continued to tell me that Goliath and her had a fun day tat the park and he likes sausage!

That’s precious. And somehow, it makes perfect sense to me that your daughter would be the one to remind her daddy that God loves Goliath, too. :-)
Hope you and Sarah and the crew are all doing well. I love you guys.
