Oh Happy Day

Today was one of those days I never want to forget.  My 5 year old came to me and asked me when she became a Christian.  I knew she thinks Jesus is already in her heart, but there has never been a specific time that she has "invited" Him in.  I didn't really know how to answer her, but I told her there wasn't really a date and asked if she wanted to make it today.  Without hesitation she said yes.  

So we knelt down on her bedroom floor and she prayed, "Jesus, I know you have been in my heart since I was one, but will you continue to work in my heart?"  

She has such a tender spirit.  She feels things deeply.  She gets hurt easily and remembers everything.  She loves people and gives all that she has.  I have no doubt she senses God and has for as long as she can remember.  She understands more than she gets credit for.  She has pure, innocent faith.  The faith of a child.  

I am so proud of you Haddee, and I promise to do my best to point you to Jesus for the rest of my life.  And I pray too that He will continue to work in your heart.  I'm so happy to be your mommy!
