Faith like a child

It was a typical day. I was in the kitchen doing the usual "mom" thing when my five year old daughter walked into the room. "Can I have a donut, Mommy?", she asked. My immediate response was a quick "no". I then braced myself for the impending tantrum that I was certain would follow. Instead I heard, "but Jesus likes donuts". Puzzled by her reply, I asked her what she was talking about. She explained, "I like donuts so Jesus in my heart likes donuts too.....and Jesus wants a donut." I wasn't quite sure what to say, so I smiled as I reached for the box of donuts and opened it for her. After all, how could I say "no" to Jesus?

(I just hope that Jesus doesn't like kittens....)
