I just LOVE reading Scripture to Sawyer and discussing spiritual things with him.
I read Mark 3 to him and then we discussed things from him fearing he only "half" believes he has salvation to me telling him he tried to explain to me what he remembered about Heaven when he was 2 1/2 or 3.
Sometimes he feels half of him doesn't believe he's saved because he feels he has to "do" more. I got to explain (again) that there isn't any more he can "do" because you don't earn salvation- it's a gift. You just have to accept it.
He asked "Then why don't some people have salvation?" I told him, "Well, when you are given a gift, you have the option/ choice to refuse it... and some, sadly, refuse the gift."
He just looked sad at that reality.
Lord, thank you for wisdom. Thank you for these precious moments with my Sawyer. I am so grateful that you blessed me with him and that you knew I needed him. Thank you for encompassing my existence. Please help me to guide this young one in Your ways and along the path YOU have marked for him. Amen
