Middle Twerp is sitting in time out right now for beating up Baby Twerp.
Here is the actual conversation takin place at this very moment.
"I am just a bad boy. I bad bad bad very bad boy. Every night I be bad." SOB SOB SOB
"MT, you are not a bad boy you just made a bad decision."
"I know, but my brain is more powerful then my heart. That is why I made the bad decisions."
"No, Middle Twerp your heart is so much stronger than your brain. You have Jesus in your heart. And he is more powerful than your thoughts in your brain."
"No, actually I don't have Jesus in my heart."
"You DON'T?"
"No, actually my brain punched Jesus right out of my heart two minutes ago."
"He did, how?"
"Cause I ate unhealthy food when you weren't looking and it made my brain all powerful and it reached down and punched Jesus right out my heart. It punched him right out of my heart and into the mountains and then a snapping turtle just bit Jesus. And now he is hurt and can't come back in my heart and that is why I made bad choices."
"Wow, how can we get Jesus back in your heart?"
"I don't know."
"You think we can pray and ask him back into your heart?"
"He won't come back. Cause the speed is all out of him and he doesn't have power anymore cause the brain punched him so hard it knocked the speed right out of him."
"Let's try and pray. Dear Jesus, will you please forgive me and come back into my heart and help me not listen to my brain and make better choices. Amen."
"Amen." Sniff sniff "Okay, Ready Jesus -- You want a piece of us Brain?" {insert fists}

well, really, in truth, I have never heard it explained any more honestly and simply than MT's explanation! no theologian has ever made this much sense to me, ever.
I mean it really is pretty obvious. The boy is like a genius already at being able to explain matters of the heart!
You and your kids totally crack me up. Such the imagination!!
Oh that is precious! From the mouths of Babes.
I am rolling on the floor laughing :) But in reality, I agree with Dana and Daisy...it can't get much simpler than that. From the mouths of babes.

Aww, such a cutie pie little guy. Yes, it is so hard to make the right decisions and it is, of course, us that turn away from the Lord, not the other way around. He is a very special boy for recognizing that...despite being all violent and boy like. :) What is the matter with those rapscalions?!?
Dana said it best!
That's pretty much the way it is!
I wuv him.
Oh my word...that is very funny. A child wise beyond his years!
gotta love boys!
this sounds so familiar...
This all started when you let him play with that dead bird.
I will call the prayer line and begin the intrtcession for Jesus and protection from snapping turtles.
