Today, as I was putting 25 month old Faith to bed, I read her a Bible story. There was a picture of Jesus and she noticed the holes in His hands. She said " Mommy what this?" I said Jesus had owies in His hands.

"Oh Jesus owies?"

She looked up at me with a look of concern and sadness. She doesn't like it when people get hurt and she just kept pointing at Jesus' hands and saying "owies???"

I explained to her that Jesus had those owies because He suffered and died for us. For our sins, He was broken.

Faith looked up at me and said "Mommy pray."

And I prayed, holding back the tears, saying "Thank you Jesus for having those owies so that we could be forgiven of our sins. " I said " Faith, now you pray."

In her two year old way, she prayed "Dear Lord, Jesus owies. In Jesus name, Amen"

Yes Jesus, we thank You.
