Matthew 21:16 They asked Jesus, "Do you hear what these children are saying?" "Yes," Jesus replied. "Haven't you ever read the Scriptures? For they say, 'You have taught children and infants to give you praise.'"
Last Friday my husband picked our children up from school. Since my sister's office is on their way back through town, he and the children dropped by to see her. According to my sister, there was a gentleman there who is not the easiest or most pleasant person. Yet, for some reason he decided to strike up a conversation with our middle child. *sigh* He looked at her as she stood next to her Daddy and asked, "Where did you get those pretty eyes?" Without a missed beat she replied, "God." The man looked at my husband, who was smiling, and asked, "Don't you think maybe Daddy or Mommy had something to do with it?" Firm in her conviction, she shook her head and said, "No. God did." The gentleman was speechless but perhaps he left that office with more to think about.
Thank you Dear Heavenly Father for my eyes to see You, my heart to hear You and my lips to continue to encourage and teach our children to share Your blessings for their creation with others. Sometimes the littlest voice can be the one that is heard in the darkness so that another may find the Light.
