God needs to be bigger in our eyes
They were laying down. At that point, Caden popped up and leaned up close to Clint’s face, first peering into his right eye, and then his left. Clint was getting a little uncomfortable with the invasion of his personal space.
Unprompted, inches away from Clint’s eyes, Caden said, “Dad, I see Jesus.”
Weeks later, Caden returned and looked into Clint’s eyes again.
“What do you see?” Clint asked.
“Dad,” Caden said, “God needs to be bigger in your eyes.”
Most of the time God probably wants to be bigger in our eyes. How big is he in yours?

We all too often underestimate God and Who he truly is. We place him in a box and only take Him outnwhen we are in trouble and can’t get out of the mess on our own…..!!!
Good reminder. Thanks Seth.
Really, the best blog I’ve read anywhere in the recent past. I love what our kids teach us and I love Clint’s persistent focus on incarnational living.
I love clint’s stories. This one is precious.
