Dear brothers and sisters,

An An is the cute daughter of my friend. One time in early 2022, 3-year-old An An and I played on the shared balcony of my home and my neighbor’s house, where there were many flower pots.

I had a rosary with a cross around my neck. When I bent down to play with An An, the cross swayed outside my dress, so An An saw. The little girl held the cross with her tiny fingers, looked intently and said nothing.

I said: “It’s Jesus.”

The girl was silent for a moment then asked: “Why is Jesus lying with his arms and legs spread out?”

Oh my God. I thought I knew a little bit about the Bible but when I heard her question, I couldn’t give an answer. I felt like I knew nothing about the Bible and Jesus. Oh, I still had to learn a lot to be able to speak simply for the baby.

Share with you.

Have a nice day.
