11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,God's omnipresence came up in 1st and 2nd grade bible class today as we studied Psalm 103:11.
so great is his love for those who fear him;
Student A (girl): Where is God?
Me: God is everywhere all at the same time. Omnipresent is the fancy word for it. He can be here with us, and in Minnesota with my family, and in South Africa with Mrs. G's family, and in Ghana with Mrs. N's family.
Student B (boy): So, He's right here (points to the left of him), and here (points to the right side)?
Me: Yes, and you can ask him to live in your heart too.
Student C (boy): Is he in my nose too? (giggles)
Student B (boy): Is he in the toilet? (giggles)
Student A (Girl) : Wait! Is God a boy or a girl? Because if HE is a boy - that's yucky if he's in the toilet!
This led to a talk on the trinity. . .
