When our four-year-old grandson was here for Christmas, we got into a conversation about God's presence being everywhere. I cannot remember everything he said though he did want to know if God was even in the toothbrush holder. But his phrase I loved best was: "I know Jesus is everywhere, but I can't see his feet." Oh, the minds of our little ones. And thank you for sharing Hildegard's reflections. To see through their eyes is priceless.
If my doctrine of the Trinity is correct, the Father is not at all offended to hear that a three year old girl says she likes Jesus better than God.
I bet the Father cherishes these kinds of statements from children.

Love this!
love the precious theological wisdom from you and Hildegard
Following a three-year-old's spur of the moment comments and questions lead to such discovery! Loved this reflection, Rachel.
