I was testing the children in my Sunday school class to see if they understood the concept of getting to heaven. I asked them,
'If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, Would that get me into Heaven?'
'NO!' the children answered.
'If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?'
Again, the answer was, 'NO!'
By now I was starting to smile. Hey, this was fun!
'Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave candy to all the children, and loved my husband, would that get me into Heaven?' I asked them again.
Again, they all answered, 'NO!'
I was just bursting with pride for them. 'Well,' I continued, 'then how can I get into Heaven?'
A five-year-old boy shouted out,
'YOU GOTTA BE DEAD.'

What comes out of the mouth of babes is pricless.
My son is 5 and currently learning about Moses and the Pharroh in his Bible class. This past weekend, my daughter, 3, was being completely indecisive about what she wanted for a snack. My son looked at me and said, "Mom, Anna is being just like the Pharroh. She can't make up her mind."
