“A friend of ours, the wife of a pastor at a church in Colorado, had once told me about something her daughter, Hannah, said when she was three years old. After the morning service was over one Sunday, Hannah tugged on her mom's skirt and asked. "Mommy, why do some people in church have lights over their heads and some don't?" At the time, I remember thinking two things: First, I would've knelt down and asked Hannah, "Did I have a light over my head? Please say yes!" I also wondered what Hannah had seen, and whether she had seen it because, like my son, she had a childlike faith.” PeopleThinkingYearsFirstsSaidTwoLightRememberThreeChurchMorningWifeSonMomPleaseDaughterDown AndTwo ThingsSundayMy SonThree YearsPastorSkirtsChildlikeColoradoThree Year OldsChildlike Faith Author:Todd Burpo

If nothing else, you can always call the air you breath your own, or at any rate you can claim that you have it on loan.

“(After getting out of another treatment center) I came home one Sunday morning. I sat on the edge of my bed. I never grew up going to church. I never read a Bible. I wasn't anti-God. I just never thought about God. I just lived for myself and thought about myself...I was married by this point. I'd been married for two years. So, here I am sitting on the edge of my bed, nine o'clock Sunday morning. I have a son who's not quite two yet and I just broke down crying because I had been out all weekend doing cocaine.” YearsTwoHomeChurchMorningCrySonGrewBedMarriedGrew UpSittingEdgesNineBrokeClockSatTreatmentSundayTwo YearsWeekendCocaineHere I AmJust LiveSunday MorningGoing To ChurchAnti GodSitting On The Edge Author:Jay Haizlip
