I had already put the kids to bed and was taking laundry out of the dryer when I heard a little voice....
"How do I ask Jesus to come in my heart"
She began a conversation that took us into the night, and eventually prayer.
We talked to God about the gift He gave us... forgiveness and eternal life with Him.
I know that we've talked a lot about this lately and I could see her "wheels turning" when we did, but I didn't know it would be so soon that my baby would ask such deep questions. It's hard to know what to think as young as she is, and yet I'm rejoicing with the angels that my little girl believes and wants to commit her life to Christ. Oh, there is so much more that she will learn over the years, but who am I to question the depth of her understanding? The Bible makes it clear that it is as simple as having a childlike faith.
Acts 16:31 "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved."
We praise God for her life and the beginning of her faith in Him.
"Jesus loves me, this I know for the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong...."
Happy Birthday, Papa.
