My Little Billy Graham

If you know Luke, you know that if you even look at him and smile, he will start up a conversation with you.  These conversations can be about anything!  Well since starting school there has been no exception.  A couple of days after school had started his teacher pulled me aside to let me know that Luke had told her all about how much Jesus loves us, that he died for us, and listed all of the things he has made.  The look on her face told me that it was probably the last time she wanted to hear about all of that!  I told her I was glad that he had shared that and didn't think much about it again!  Then today happened...it's one of those moments in life when you are so aware that you have been entrusted with your children and you realize they are not yours but just "on loan" if you will.  I saw the teacher's aide approaching me as I came to pick up Luke and something told me "she needed to talk to me"!  Sure enough she said," I wanted to tell you something really quick".  She proceeded to explain(with tears in her eyes) that life was hard right now for her and that while on the playground today, Luke ran up to her and said, "Do know that Jesus died on the cross for you?  He was dead, but not now!  He went to heaven to make us a home and he's coming back someday!"  She said she was so surprised to hear him saying all of this and told him, "Luke your pretty incredible!"  He responded, "Well, I think you're an amazing girl too and God made you that way!"  Now I don't know all of the details of this woman's struggles but it reminded me that God can use ANY of us!  It doesn't matter if we are three years old or thirty years old, we can ALL make a difference in someone's life.  Plus, if the whole...rock'n'roll gig doesn't work out for him...it looks like he's got a back up plan!
