Lord when I grow up I want to be like my 11 year old daughter
My faith has always had bumps in the road where I lose sight of simplistic nature of how God wants me to trust Him.
Every time that I get in these “funks” I usually find my way out after talking to my 11 year old. She is one of the most godly people that I know. She loves the Lord, but her faith is enormous.
Everytime I have a tough decision to make, I go to her and ask for her opinion. And usually she points me to a simple question – What will make God happier? She believes that God’s way is the only way. She also believes that God can do anything. She also has seen her guardian angel on many occasions. She in many ways points me to God in all she does.
Matthew 18:3-5 (New International Version)
3And he said: “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5″And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me.
I need to become like a little child to enter the Kingdom. No longer will I look at what is safe, or prudent, or better off for me and my family. I want to look at what is going to make God happier. I love my sweet daughter. She is a spiritual giant.
Hey Guys! Just stopping by to see the new designs, who’s still on staff (Ester still there?), etc. Have a blessed rest of the summer- I hope to be getting Island Ministries back into the swing of things soon, and will be in touch for some shirts! Do you guys do custom websites yet?
