Night Vision

Asher & Chancery were commenting on how dark it was outside around 4 pm the other day…

 

Chancery: “It’s dark outside.”

 

Asher: “Yes it is, Chancery.”

 

Chancery: “We need to have a flashlight so we can see if we go out there.”

 

Asher: “Not if we are candle people.”

 

Me: “Wouldn’t a candle person get burned?”

 

Asher: “No, they only have fire on their heads, & it doesn’t burn them because it’s the Holy Spirit!”

 

Me: “Oh, you mean like when the tongues of fire came down at Pentecost?”

 

Asher: “Yes!  I want to be like that so I can see in the dark!”

 

Me: “Well, I’m not sure that it helped them see in the dark.”

 

Chancery: “But it was fire on their heads, so they could see!”

 

I guess we’ll just have to add that to the list of things we need to ask God about someday…
