"Life" - from a student

One of my students wrote this journal entry during our free writing time today.  I couldn't help but share it with you, hoping that you will be as inspired as I am.

"Life is a gift from God.  God is a god that knows everything.  God is a god that everything you know that's good is God and there is stuff that's good that we don't know that is God.  Life is something spiritual.  You can't imagine what life in a perfect world is.  Life is beautiful when you trust in God.  Life is a creation.  Life is: God, friends, family, and God, God, God, God, God, and God, God, and God... You know why I wrote so many Gods, because God is the bigger than that biggest number you can imagine.  God is a billion, zillion, quadrillion and etcetera more important than anything in this world.  The End."

This nine-year-old has got it right.  Let's keep our focus on the One who is infinitely more important that anything else!  It's all about You, Jesus.
