I talked about Christian over here when God called his name.
I know however that it is one thing to pray for your child and have then admit their sin. It’s another when you see a change in heart. That is the hard part for all of us.
Our head may say…
- Forgive
- Love
- Surrender
- Act
In our heart however we may…
- Bear bitterness
- Hate
- Hold on
- Stand still
Not long after his mother’s prayer, Christian was found writing and cutting out words.
His conversation with his dad when asked what he was doing…
He said, “I’m gonna tape these papers to doors to remind people of something.”
Me, “oh, yeah? Remind them of what?”
Him, “Remind them of God, Jesus, the world, and the Holy Spirit”
Me, “Ok then.”
Deuteronomy 6:9
Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
What words do you have written on your heart?
