Can't Get To Heaven On A Lego Robot

Colson's Lego League team had their first competition this past weekend. The competition was very involved; many rounds of presentations, interviews and robot demonstrations. At one point, Cole and his team were taken into a room to be interviewed by the judges. My Dad, who took Cole to the event, wasn't allowed to enter the judging room so he didn't witness what happened. But a very emotional woman walked up to Dad after the interview was over and shared this with him:

Apparently when it was Colson's turn to be interviewed, the judge asked him, "If you could have anything in the world, what would it be?" Colson thought for a moment and answered, very seriously,
"I would want God to come down from heaven and tell everyone about Jesus, so that no one would ever have to go to hell..."
This woman said that the judges were speechless. My dad said the woman was very moved herself when she shared the story. I wish Colson had made a Lego cross with Jesus on it to hold up during his speech...that would have taken it over the edge!
