Well, this is my first attempt at blogging. My reason for it is simple. My children give me many things to blog about. Zachary, my youngest is very outspoken and very black and white. He needs a lot of explanation if he doesn't understand something. But the thing that amazes me most is his love for God and people. Today, he did something amazing. I found him writing the letters E and O and then he said to me, "Mommy, this is a letter for God. It says, I love God and God loves me." Then I heard him go out the door and I said, "Zach, what are you doing?" His response(after putting the letter on the cinder blocks) was, "I'm putting this hear so that it will get blown up to space and then to heaven so God can get my letter. I want him to know that I love Him." I just cried. It is those moments that you realize how real God is. His heart is truly for the Lord and he loves God and wants to do right by Him so bad. He talks about God all the time and asks me all the time about Him. He asked me today if God ever sleeps and why God was making it night already (it was a thunderstorm). Then yesterday, he told me that rain was Jesus' tears. Everything is this world to my son is about God. I want to look at things that way. I wish I didn't get so caught up in the world that I can look at everything through God's eyes. Zachary always wants to spread God's word. He has a little bible of the New Testament that he looks at and makes "new verses" that he says God would love to hear. Why can't I see God in everything and always want to please Him in all I do. Let me put Him first. I was reading a few articles about Steven Curtis Chapman and his family and that horrible loss last week. The thing that sticks in my mind is how that family gave that little girl the opportunity to know who Jesus is and she served Him with all of her little heart. Now my prayer is for that family to heal and for their son to seek solace in the Lord and seek forgiveness that the Lord gives at the cross.
Little children are God's gift to us. And we see the world through their eyes. I pray that the Lord will help me to see the world as my darling son Zachary sees Him and wants to serve Him.
