Wisdom from a 3 year old

At dinner, Karina was being extremely quiet and withdrawn and seemed to be almost in a trance-like state, which if you have ever eaten with us, you know is far from normal.

After witnessing a few minutes of this, I asked her if she was okay or if she was sick or something like that.
Her response: "I am great Mommy! I was just peace-ing, like God likes to help me do."

We have been talking a lot about the fruit of the spirit the last couple of weeks from Galatians 5:22-23. I had never heard of that particular fruit of the spirit used as a verb before, but I like her definition. Sometimes we need to spend some good time with God just "peace-ing". Thanks for the reminder Karina!
