A Simple Prayer



Over our dinner of chow mein noodles, my little girl prayed:

Dear Jesus, please come into my heart, because I need to remember God. Amen.

Unscripted, unrehearsed, unprompted, and from her heart.

Praise the Lord. Amen.

Oh. My. Word. I would've bawled right then and there. Amazing :)

Sharon, that might be your hormones talking. ;) But yes, it caused both of us to look at each other and wonder what just happened. Of course, I'm not sure when kids really "get it" so maybe she will need to pray it again and again over the years. For now, though, she knows that Jesus is in Mommy & Daddy's heart, and in hers, and that one day we can all be with Gong Gong again in Heaven (with Jesus, of course). <3
