"Pious Portrait" ...


A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they drew. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's artwork.

As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."

The teacher paused and said, "but no one knows what God looks like". Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied, "They will in a minute."

Doesn't that imply that children are the only ones who see GOD?I feel they alone deserve to see him.We should be glad to see God in kids.
