A Difficult Calling..

'Nine-year old recaps the bible' - the YOUTube title shouted. With an air of cynicism, i clicked the title...and was WOWed ...not so much that he could sum up the bible 'story' in those 8minutes...but more so that he was able to voice his learning from this project.:

• 'that the bible tells us how to live and is helping us know God better by telling us his characteristics'.
• 'think of the bible as a movie .... just like you have to watch the whole movie to get the whole picture you have to read through the whole bible to see what God is saying....'

This little boy is not just a story teller - that is the easy part - he is a scholar and a teacher. How many of us can, besides telling a story, build strength through what we have learned and teach others as well?  A difficult calling - but not an impossible one.
