I’m sitting here watching Mikayla poop her pants. What’s crazy is her mom won’t even care. In fact she might even put on a sweet voice and call it “Kayla’s little poopy”. But if I pooped my pants, she would completely freak.

Why? Cause I know better.

God is a better parent than us. He doesn’t leave us when we poop our spiritual pants.

God knows the difference between imaturity and rebellion, and he works with us accordingly. Sometimes we make God out to be a mean and stoic supreme being. That’s not right, he’s actually more like a loving parent.

“If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask of him.” -Jesus

What about you? Do you have a messed up view of God?
