Saturday
was a moment in my life that I will never forget.
Saturday
sunny and cool, a day with our family, being outside together working
around the yard...it was a good day, later on it was the best day.
Little
K has been asking questions and a few days ago said he wanted to ask
Jesus into his heart, but wanted to wait until his dad was home. So
we talked with him on our front porch at our house on April 28, 2012.
He
said all that showed he has the faith of a child, faith I can learn a
lot from.
Said
all the things that are sometimes hard for grown-ups to believe, but
he said them very confident and matter-of-fact...
Then
said he didn't want to do it right now and walked away.
About
an hour later, I had thought it was over, but Little K said, “Mom,
I want to ask Jesus into my heart right now.”
Those
words are seared into my mind...on my heart...just typing it now
makes me smile.
Praying
on our front porch with my son and my husband...a holy moment
happened.
My
oldest son, whom I have prayed almost every night of his life that
he'd “be a man of God and the words he speaks be truth,” chose
to trust in what is unseen, to give his life to something bigger than
himself, to believe that Jesus is who he said he is.
I love
that boy.
I'm so
thankful, my heart overflows.
He is
a new creation, the old is gone the new has come.
There
was a party in Heaven on Saturday for one little lost sheep was
found, one little 6 year old boy made the decision of his life.
He
decided to follow Jesus....
And I
look forward to watching and praying for him the rest of my life to
see what plans God has for him.
Thank
you God for saving my son. Thank you God for making him whole and
loving him and forgiving him. Help him to move and learn and grow
closer to you all the days of his life. May his little light always
glorify you!
