Wisdom From a Kid

"Peter and the other apostles replied: 'We must obey God rather than men!' " Acts 5:29 Every Wednesday morning, the missionaries in my area get together for worship and prayer. This week we read Acts 5 and were sharing what God had shown us through that passage. Collin, a 11-year-old missionary kid who has lived his whole life in Japan, told us that he liked verse 29 because Peter and the apostles must obey God no matter what may happen if they disobeyed man's rules. Then Collin went on to tell us that there were people who didn't read their Bible before they went to church on Sunday, so they don't really know what the Bible says, they just listen to whatever the preacher says, and therefore they are really obeying man and not God. Pretty deep insight from a 11-year-old, huh?

Collin and Hannah both continue to amaze Teresa and I
with their Godly insights.

They also like having fun and have great since of humor.

Later,
