What do you do?

What do you do when you are a fifth grade boy whose second grade sister died last year of cancer, and a well meaning girl in your class asks if you know if your sister is in heaven or "down there?"

What do you do if the girl was well meaning, but said that your sister wasn't in heaven because she wasn't a Christian?

What do you tell your daughter if she was trying to talk with a classmate about God, but instead she said something that may have turned him off from Jesus for a long time?

Why do seven year old girls die of cancer?

Why do mothers of seven year old girls rely on fifth grade boys to cairry them through their grief?

Why do seven year old boys who need Jesus Love encounter well meaning fifth grade girls who say things that they don't understand.

What do you do? And Why
