Miracles in the classroom

This week we spoke in class about the novel Charlotte’s Web and about how the farmer thought that the words written on the web were a miracle sent from God. I asked the students if they had ever seen a miracle or what they thought a miracle was. One little boy raised his hand and gave a response, which blessed my heart to no end. “First,” he started, “it began 2007 years ago when a baby was born in a manger. This little boy grew up and did miracles. He healed the sick and even raised the dead. When a little boy brought 5 loaves and fishes this man fed 5000 with it” (his words paraphrased but very close).

I just stood amazed, soaking up every word from this 10-year old boy as he spoke about the life of Jesus. Wow! Children truly are for signs and wonders, and I am so grateful to God for allowing to play a role in His working.
