"Why are they crying?"

My little 4 year old Capricorn friend, Mia, comes to church with me each week. A few Sundays ago during the 'response-time', lots of people came up to the front asking for prayer. Many were moved to tears - crying because they were desperate for God to do something in their life. Mia was on my hip, tightly holding on when she whispered in my ear, "Why are they crying?" I said, "They're speaking to God asking Him to help them." She thought about that for a second and said, "I want to cry."
Clever girl! In her sweet, innocent way, she understood 'speaking to God.' Little ones are sponges - especially when observing the Body-of-Christ in action! Beautiful! God is teaching me MUCH through the children of Capricorn, especially Mia!
