Earlier this year, I looked out and saw three little girls walking up to my house before church. I thought “Here we go, it’s 8:15 and the neighborhood kids are already wanting to play?!”
I looked closer and one of the little girls was actually my 6 yr old daughter, Rachel. I found out Rachel had invited two of her neighborhood friends to church. They were even wearing Rachel’s other church dresses from her closet because they all wanted to match. My heart melted.
I’ve never even talked to my kids about inviting people to church. She just did it. We all piled in the van and went.
If only I could have a sliver of the faith my daughter has when it comes to being more Christlike and inviting all to come into Him. Rachel taught me a big lesson today about faith and love. Thank you, Rachel, for helping soften my heart, and renewing my spirit today.
“And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”(Matt 18:2-4)
