Is God stealth?

My boys collect models (at least 25 to date) of fighter planes used from WWI to present.

Each model consists of small parts patiently assembled by my boys, with notes about the plane - country that manufactured the real plane, where used, etc.


(Photo: two of the collections, A-6E intruder, left, and F-117 Nighthawk, right. F-117 Nighthawk is world's firts operational aircraft designed around stealth technology; publicized during the Gulf War, Wikipedia)

Stealth fighters collections are the favorites.


(Photo: some of the collections. photo at left behind the collections shows the presidential chopper i took in 1993 during the President's visit in Baguio City.)

One day after praying, lester asked, "mommy, si God ba stealth (is God stealth?) ?"

I looked at my husband. He smiled and nodded "you know what he means".

At 5, my son meant "God is invisible".

He will turn 7 this year. he can understand better when I reply to his question - "Is God stealth?"

No, God is not stealth because he does not conceal himself - He reveals Himself through his every creation;

No, God is not stealth because he does not avoid detection - he's always available to anyone who calls on His name.

Yes, he's stealth for precise targeting and destroying the enemy in the air.
- God is here to protect us from our enemies, and destroy the evil.
- He responds with precision to our prayers and behavior because He knows what's best for us
- He targets the bad (evil) and preserves the good.

(p.s sorry, i had to immediately edit this entry. i've mistaken the left for right, and vise-versa, as pointed out by a reader. thanks, charles. part of birth pains, being a new blogger)
