Yesterday Jake and I were taking the boys to spend the night at my
parent's house. On the way Sawyer was talking, as usual, and we were
doing our best to track and converse.
He got on this thought thread about God being everywhere. This being
accurate Jake and I affirmed that thought. He kept talking. "God is
even right here next to me" he says with such positive energy. "You're
absolutely correct, Sawyer."
Then he switched the thought thread to him crying because he was lost.
We listened. He said, "What if I was lost. If I started crying God
would try really hard to make me stop. If I didn't stop maybe he would
work hard to help me find you guys."
Seriously, our eyes were watering. I even told Jake, "He's gonna make
me cry." Jake said, "I know."
This child is so precious he overflows our hearts with love,
appreciation, and thankfulness to God. We learn so much about God and
ourselves from this kid. This wonderful package from the Lord. May we
continue to guide him, affirm him, love him, SEE him, encourage him,
and all the other things good parents do with God's leading.
