Focal Point


After A. set up her nativity set just the way she liked it, she took this picture herself. Not bad for a 3 year old! I find it inspiring how little children instinctively know to arrange a nativity like this - with Baby Jesus surrounded and central. It's like each individual wants to get as close as physically possible to Him. Today she practiced going up to see Him and then talking to Him. When she told me it was my turn, I felt a bit flabbergasted at first. What would I say to my Savior? Then the words began to flow ... and her little game turned into a sweet moment and a testimony builder for me. No wonder we’re commanded to become like little children.
