Jesus said....

"Out of the mouth of babes!" is a phrase I hear all of the time.  With all of these little ones running around here, I'm bound to learn a lesson at least once a day.  Around the dinner table the other night, the family was sitting, eating, and doing our normal dinner conversation - highlighting the events of the day, filling in daddy on any mishaps or findings, hearing of his adventures on the New York City subways, when someone (who shall remain anonymous) passed gas (to put it in polite terms).  Little Thessaly looked around in disgust, and with her little furrowed brow past judgement, "Jesus said, 'Don't Do That!'"
Granted, I don't recall a chapter and verse on this one, but after the hysterics died down, I loved her way of thinking.  What would one do differently if Jesus were sitting there at the table with us?  How would one behave if our Savior was ever present?  He is there, with us, watching us, and loving us.  I pray He would have little to reprimand and not have to use as stern a voice as our sweet Thessy found necessary.
