New Member of God's Family

 

Wow.

That’s all I could say.

Wow.

Me and the kids had been re-reading, “Lola Mazola’s Happyland Adventure-My John 3:16 Book” and my oldest began asking me questions about what it meant to be saved and how he wanted “Jesus in his heart”. We talked a bit and I asked if he understood who Jesus was, and he replied that “He was the Lord’s Son” and related the story of the resurrection to me.Lola Mazola's Happyland Adventure: My John 3:16 Book

We talked a bit and he wanted to say the prayer of salvation that was in,”Lola Mazola’s Happyland Adventure-My John 3:16 Book” and we did and well….humbled to say that our Heavenly Father has a new member in His family!

This was a humbling experience and a close friend shared so fitting the following verse from 3 John 1:4:

4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.[a]

Can we say an “Amen”?

What an amazing day and the laying down of a strong foundation in our Heavenly Father’s word and love and just constant prayers that it’s not so much of the importance of the decision that was made today, but the importance of sparking that love, that curiousity and that reminder later on in life, when the kids get older.

It was a humbling experience as well for me, because it reminded me so much of Jesus words when He shared to everyone and to us in Matthew 19:14 (NKJV):

14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

May our hearts be like our children, humble and always open to our Heavenly Father’s words.Praise to our Heavenly Father for a new member in His familiy.
