While I can see the angle of god speaking to him as a very solid interpretation of the song I like to see it in a different light.
I feel it just perfectly captures the importance of accepting other people as human, that we are still the children we were born as and not above mistakes.

@Cmcwill09 i appreciate your sharing your interpretation. I am a follower of Christ... I try to live according to His commands and tenets.
