Even as Christians, all of us have many different struggles in life. Much more so that we are struggling because of sin and sin is so shameful that we need our continous spiritual cleansing.
Although many of today's Christian poplulation have been born through a Christian family, yet the rest have become Christians through conversion. Yet in both instances, we all experience birth into Christianity until we develop to be spiritual toddlers and perhaps into mature christians.
This is not one of your children's Bible stories but a real true to life story that did not happen during a Vacation Bible School class where there are children, but a real experience witnessed by a minister during a church service. This was regarding his nephew who was once a 4 year old kid back then. As children, we know kids have very short attention span.
Thus, after about five minutes of sitting down in church with his parents, this minister's nephew just started making noises while the church service was going on. These noises were probably meant to attract his parents attention. However, this attention seeking kid, started crying so loud that he finally got the attention of his mother.
The mother simply carried this kid on her shoulders bringing the child outside of the church. As a toddler, kids' hands can simply grab anything with their hands without regard, and this minister's nephew was no exception. While the mom was making her way from the pews, the kid was swinging his hand from side to side until he finally grabbed on to something - the hair of one lady. Unknown to the mother of what was happening behind her (with what her child had done), she kept moving her way out of the pews while her son held on to the woman's hair.
A struggle ensued between this toddler and the woman as the kid continued to hold on to the woman's hair firmly. The woman struggled, not in pain, but in shame because the hair that this kid had grabbed was the woman's wig. Fortunately, not so many witnessed the event because there were just a few church attendees that day.
