Tonight in bed, Caeden started singing the EKC rap that he was taught on Sundays. It was the first time that he sang anything (other than the Doxology) to me that he'd learnt there.
After the rap, he started to share (or should i say narrate) the Easter story. About Jesus, Jerusalem, his disciples and the cross. As a concerned (and rather conservatively optimistic) Christian father, i wondered if he'd truly understood the meaning of salvation. So i just had to ask to find out.
"What happened to Jesus on the cross?"
- he was nailed to it (stretching his hands wide whilst lying down)
"Why did he have to die?"
- for all bad people. There were 3 crosses. Jesus was in the middle.
"What happened after he died?"
- a soldier poked his side and blood came out. Soldier said there was a lot of blood on his hands
"What happened next?"
- they put him behind a stone and an angel pushed it away. Then Jesus came out. After that he went up in smoke.
"Where did he go?"
- to heaven.
"Do u want to go heaven?"
- yes. Because i choose Jesus.
Caeden has chosen Jesus. In faith, i believe he has.
Thank you, Jesus for saving this little boy.
