I.
Setting: Bedtime in Belle's room, of course.Characters: Belle & Daddy
Belle: "Daddy, would you say you are one-third righteousness, and two-thirds sinfulness?"
Daddy: "Well, we're more like 100% sinful; but the LORD looks at us through the righteousness of His Son, and then sees us that way."
Belle: (repeating, as if clearly not thinking the question answered): "Daddy, would you say you are one-third righteousness, and two-thirds sinfulness?"
Daddy: "Ummm, why do you ask, Belle?"
Belle: "Well, I think I'm just a tiny part righteous. Like about the size of an eyeball."
Daddy: "Well, just remember that Jesus is righteous for us."
II.
Setting: Lunchtime in the kitchenCharacters: All 4 of us
Belle: "Mom, how is sin like a boomerang or a yo-yo?"
Mom: "How?"
Belle: "They both just keep coming back...no matter how hard you try to get rid of sin, it just keeps coming back toward you."
Out of the mouths of babes, you know?
