In God We Trust


Today Gabe was looking at a $20 bill in the back seat that I let him hold to pay for basketball camp. As he started at it intently, he asked me....

"Why does it say 'In God We Trust', Mom?"

Me: "Well, our country was founded on God's principals in the Bible, and America is a place where we put our faith in God to protect and guide our country."

Gabe: "Well... how come there are so many people in America who don't trust in God?"

Great conversation that followed about free will, freedom, putting our faith in things other than God and what happens when we do that. Love that my little guy is becoming quite the thinker. :) Love his questions, even when they're tough.
