The kids and I were praying for a friend who was injured in a cheer accident, and Noah said, "Maybe God was trying to get her attention and make her stop spending so much time on cheer." That led into a discussion of God's plans and purposes. As any discussion of God always does, it ended up in the topic of our 9-year-old cousin Isaac, who died this summer. Noah asked me for hundredth time why God let Isaac die, and I said for the hundredth time that I don't understand it myself. I said we have no idea what God is doing, because we can't see the big picture. Noah said, "Is it like watching a widescreen movie on our regular small TV where parts of it are cut off?"
