Mom, Would You Eat Me?

Interesting topic of conversation at bed time tonight! We have one of those daily Bible story books that we read each night before bed. This nights passage was taken from 2 Kings 6 where there was a terrible famine in the land. Two women were so desperate for food that they agreed to eat one woman's child the first night and the other woman's the next.

Here's how the conversation went:
Jake: "Mom, would you eat me?"
Mom: "No, I couldn't do that."
Jake: "would you eat Ty?"
Mom: "No"
Jake: "would you eat Lindsey?"
Mom: "No, I would eat a deer or a squirrel or a robin."
Jake: "you can't eat a robin. It's the state bird."

The main point of the story for today was to remind us that only God can help us. I think they could have pulled some other nugget out of the passage to demonstrate this.
