She had learned about Jesus in
Sunday School, in Good News Club and
Also at home.
One evening, out of the blue, the girl
Asked her mom, "Can I ask Jesus into
My heart?"
After discussing the ins and outs of
What her request meant, the
Mother listened as her dear daughter
Prayed a simple prayer to give her
Life to Jesus.
Her sister followed suit.
My daughters are grown, now, with
Children of their own.
And their childhood commitment "stuck."
They are both still walking with Jesus.
Missy and Rachel were able to understand the
Gospel at a tender age.
It's why I don't discount the prayers of
The children who recently trusted Jesus in
Bible School.
How appropriate that I was blessed to
Pray with two little girls!
They don't fully understand what knowing
Jesus is all about.
I don't either.
But it's a first step.
And I pray that the decisions of these
Young ones will "stick."
"Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to
me and do not hinder them, for the
kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'"
Matthew 19:14
