Valerie teaches small children. I was very amused recently, when on the phone, she told me:
"Kids can be charming sometimes! You will never guess what one of the kids told me this morning! I asked him, 'What would you do if the devil knocked at the door of your heart?' And this tiny little six year old boy answered, 'If the devil comes knocking at the door of my heart, I will send Jesus to open the door Himself for me.'"
I do not know who this little boy is, but if I ever meet him, I will certainly give him a big big hug, because this little boy has grasped the ultimate secret. When life becomes tough we have a choice. Either we marshal our own resources as if the outcome all depends on us or we can see the situation as an exciting arena in which God will intervene. The choice we make can ... build or destroy us!
