Lily continues to be quite thoughtful with her prayers. Tonight she thanked Jesus for Daddy, Mommy, Grandma and Grandpa, other one, Andrew (we were looking at family pictures earlier this evening and I asked her who everyone was in the picture. She piped up quite confidently Andrew when I pointed to her Uncle Andrew!), Tabba, Daniel, and Micah. I think there was more, but I lost track. She then proceeded to ask Jesus to be with Daddy at school and Mommy at school.
I have been praying that Lily will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus at an early age. I think he is already working on her heart! Her favorite movie/DVD right now is Bible songs (thanks Aunt Kim and Uncle Chris). She is singing the songs all the time. Yesterday, she was singing "Jesus Loves Me" while leafing through my Bible. She found a different Bible of mine that she put in one of her backpacks and carries it around with her. She likes to raise her hand in the air when she is singing "Jesus Loves Me" (neither Steve or myself are that demonstrative during worship). Her other favorite song right now is "I am a Promise." In the video she is saying, "I am a promise, possibility, I am a promise, possibility!" She has quite got potentiality down yet!
Lord, may I nurture this sweet and tender heart without crushing her strong spirit!
