hear from heaven
I was going over some ABC cards wit my three-year-old granddaughter
, Emily. We were doing the basics along with some ABC Scripture cards and I would say the letter and accompanying verse.
We got to the R and I read: "R... Remember the sabbath day," . . .
and Emily did as she had been doing since A. She repeated R and then said:
"amember thde savath day,"
I carried along the next part out loud:
"to keep it holy."
She continued on with hers:
"to keep it holy-roley-POLEY!"
Everytime I read it again to help her say it "right" ... she said it the same way. I was smiling as I thought of how God heard her right. He knew her heart and the sound surely reached His heavenly ears. A child taking the time and making the effort to say and speak His Holy Word. Even with an extra roley-poley!
Love,
Sandy
