The Gospel According to Rita

This is the Gospel according to my five year old Rita.  She drew these one morning, then taped them together and had me tape them on the sliding glass door.  My walls and windows are covered with various masterpieces and no museum can compete with their value.  You will need to click on the photo to enlarge and see the details.  The top panel is the Nativity, or as Rita calls it "Jesus borned".  The next panel is "Jesus died on the cross".  Third is "when Jesus' mom and dad put him in the grave that was a cave" (she put the paper portrait, but if you look at it landscape, Jesus is lying down).  The fourth panel is "Jesus came alive again".  That's the Gospel in a nutshell.  God loved us enough to go through all these things and asks us to love all people like He loves us.  How childishly simple our faith should be, but humans make it so complex.
