You're right

Sometimes our children, in their innocence and outspoken way, can really nail us with their observations.  Has this ever happened to you?  We were driving past a Hindu temple the other day, one that we pass once or twice a week.  It's a big temple so there are always a lot of people coming and going.

As we were driving past Kara said, "Why are all those people going in there to worship those idols?"
"Well", I told her, "they are searching for God, but they don't know the truth, so they are worshiping the idols."
 "We know the truth, right Mom?  We know about Jesus, they should just ask us."
You're right, Kara.
And that's exactly why we're here.
Even if they don't ask, we need to tell.

Mark 16:15  Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.
Luke 14:23  ...Go out into highways and hedges, and compel them to come in...
Mark 9:37 ...The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few.
I Peter 3:15...be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you...
