A group of 5 to 8 year children were asked that question and these were their answers: David, age 7, said you know you’re grown up when your clothes don’t fit anymore.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,553 views

    It is not enough to be curious about Christ, keeping your distance or living in the world unequipped. If you are merely curious, come closer and you will grow and mature.

    We have a new puppy at our house. She’s about 11 weeks old. And is she ever curious! She is curious about everything. There is nothing that escapes her attention, and nothing that does not interest her. She has to sniff at the house plants; she pulls at the towels; she tugs at the bedspread ...read more

In OT people return to God with fasting and weeping, wearing sack clothes and dust on their heads. They do this often as it was required, and some of them took to the streets to show that they were ...read more
