Toddler's take on election
This morning our children overheard us commenting on election. Ethan (5) asked what we were talking about, so Alicia asked him, "Did God chose you or did you chose God?"
Without hesitation, Ethan answered, "I chose God."
I responded, "See, I believe that God chose me."
Ethan asked, "Huh?" (Anna Kate [3] stood in the background shouting, "Jesus chose you! Jesus chose you!")
Alicia said, "I'm with Ethan, Huh?"
Anna Kate came over to the table where I was cleaning up after breakfast. "God chose you and then you chose God."
I said, "I'm with Anna."
Without hesitation, Ethan answered, "I chose God."
I responded, "See, I believe that God chose me."
Ethan asked, "Huh?" (Anna Kate [3] stood in the background shouting, "Jesus chose you! Jesus chose you!")

I said, "I'm with Anna."

What's that saying...? Out of the mouth of babes. BTW, I agree with AnnaKate too.
Yep, my ballot goes with Anna Kate too. By the way, can you please tell her that I am the real Anna Kate?
Interesting timing for me to read this - our small group just had an unplanned discussion on predestination. I like the simpleness of Anna Kate's statement.
