Little children can give us interesting examples of faith. Some time ago I jotted down from one of our national magazines a short compilation of “Children’s Letters to God.” I found them most interesting.
Little Mark wrote: “Dear God, I keep waiting for spring but it never [did] come yet. Don’t forget.”
Another child stated: “Dear God, If you made the rule for kids to take out the garbage please change it.”
Little Mickey wrote: “Dear God, If you watch in Church on Sunday I will show you my new shoes.”
Jeff wrote: “Dear God, It is great the way you always get the stars in the right place. Why can’t you do that with the moon?”
Joyce wrote: “Dear God, Thank you for the baby brother but what I prayed for was a puppy.”
I like this one from Matthew the best: “Dear God, I read your book and I like it.” Then he asked, “I would like to write a book someday with the same kind of stories. Where do you get your ideas? Best wishes.”
