& it put him in a state of awe. He said, in just utter amazement, "Whoa!...How did He...Ooh yeah, well I guess Jesus IS VERY powerful." He said his prayer with such great meaning & emotion in his voice, "Jesus, thank you for being SO powerful."
I feel so grateful to have such a tool as this Quiet Time, to not only teach Cj the habit of daily time in the Word & in prayer, but also about who Jesus actually is. Our Pastor has been teaching about the life of Christ in Sunday School lately & he keeps saying how any problem or need you will ever face in life; the answer can be found in Jesus. And Cj, at this young age, is learning that! Jesus can handle anything we will ever face, because "Jesus IS VERY powerful."
We are told in Deuteronomy, really throughout the Bible, to teach our children from a young age about the stories & laws in the Bible which show us who God is, why we need Him, & how we find Him. Sadly in our busy lives of today it feels like it is so easy to lack in those teaching. I mean, we teach our kids their ABCs, Colors, or what sounds the animals make. And how do we do it? By singing little songs, playing games, going over it while we eat dinner, or at storytime before bed. This is just what God expects us to do to teach our children about Him. I like that the WOL Quiet Time for young kids help show parents how to teach the Word, at each age & learning level our child hits, & even as they grow to adulthood. Facing eternity, how much more important will it be that our kids know Jesus than whether or not they know how to moo like a cow or boo like a sheep?
