Can I just tell you how good God is? I have been praying for my kids salvation alot lately. In fact, I had a dream that my kids and I were in a car wreck. Instantly, Ty along with Will and Ben went to heaven. My girls were doomed to hell. Can I tell you that after that dream, I have been earnestly praying for all of our kids. Well I know that God answers prayers, but it sure is funny when it happens so closely to when I pray for it. Emily came to me, of all times while I was cleaning the toilet, and told me she had been thinking about becoming a Christian. I told her that was wonderful news. We sat down and discussed it and then went to talk to daddy about this big decision. She prayed a simple, but very special prayer. She said, "I know you sent your Son to die for my sins. Would you let Jesus come to live in my heart?" So sweet. Luke 18:17 "I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." I just can't explain what that means to my mother's heart to have my child not only a part of my earthly family, but now a part of my spiritual family. It brought tears to my eyes to hear her prayer. I also loved her excitement. She woke up this morning and totally made me laugh. "Mom, I am upset. I am going to have to miss my Sunday school class." I asked her why and she told me, "Silly! I have to get baptized!" Such zeal. I pray that she will have that zeal with her all the days of her life. Thank you, Jesus, for you being our precious Savior. Thank you for touching Emily's heart and bring her to You! I love you, my blessed Savior!!!!!
