"ANGELS EXPLAINED BY CHILDREN"
*Based on an e-mail I received:
I only know the names of two angels, Hark and Harold. -Gregory, 5
Everybody's got it all wrong. Angels don't wear halos anymore. I forget why, but scientists are working on it. -Olive, 9
It's
not easy to become an angel! First, you die. Then you go to Heaven and
then there's still the flight training to go through. And then you got
to agree to wear those angel clothes. -Matthew, 9
Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something else. -Mitchell, 7
My guardian angel helps me with math, but he's not much good for science. -Henry, 8
Angels don't eat, but they drink milk from Holy Cows!!! -Jack, 6
Angels
talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. The main
subject is where you went wrong before you got dead -Daniel, 9
When
an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. And when
he lets out his breath, somewhere there's a tornado. -Reagan, 10
Angels
have alot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an angel
comes in through your window and leaves money under your pillow. Then
when it gets cold, angels go south for the winter. -Sara, 6
Angels live in cloud houses made by God and his son, who's a very good carpenter. -Jared, 8
All angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn't go for it. -Antonio, 9
My
angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on
helping me while she was still down here on earth. -Lynn, 9
Some
of the angels are in charge of helping heal sick animals and pets. And
if they don't make the animals get better, they help the child get over
it. -Vicki, 8
What I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot arrows at them. -Sarah, 7
Kelly's
note *** Children are so precious when they talk about God and heavenly
things. I was asking my 4 year old nephew when we were praying after he
asked God to bless everyone he knew, "Elliot, if you could ask God to
give you anything you wanted, what would it be?" He replied, I would
want him to take all the planets and all the stars and make me a
spaceship. Can we say future Nasa engineer? He doesn't want much....I
would like to see "that spaceship"!
You know when precious ones talk about God and all concepts concerning Him, He just gets a good chuckle and just loves it!
We all need a good laugh now and then:) Looking up and loving the learning process! Kelly Herman in Dallas
