we were watching a travel show about italy this morning and they showed the last supper. we were talking to the kiddos about it and i explained that we don’t really know what Jesus looks like. n said, “did He wear white clothes like in all the pictures?” i told him that probably not, he lived in a time and place that did not lend itself to white clothes, but i talked to him about art and how they used white to show pure and perfect stuff. and since Jesus was both of those, the artists used white to show that about Him. my 4 year old asked if the Bible told us what He looked like. i told him that we only know that we’re told that He wasn’t very handsome.
to which he replied, “the Bible is God’s, but He lets us use it.”
