My Sarah Beth is currently working on an art project for our church. She thought of an idea to draw a picture of Jesus and to write something about Him. In her own words, Sarah wrote the following (I just made a couple of spelling corrections):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jesus is who I love. I love Him because He first loved me. He died on the cross to save us from sin. And did you know that Jesus is the Son of God? When I grow up I am going to be a girl who tells people about God.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My daughter’s words have touched my heart today. She challenges and inspires me! Sarah loves Jesus, and she loves people. In fact, she is so friendly and talkative to everyone–even when I might react to others in a shy way.
I pray that Sarah will grow up to be a mighty witness for Him. …But you know what? I think she already is!!
Thank you Lord!! To You Be The Glory!!
