So he must have gone to the school room and got a white piece of paper and wrote out his quote. When I finished getting ready he told me the quote was waiting for me on the dresser.
This is what it said:
We are like a plant on windy days. But God is like the grass on days that are windy he is still. Corbin
This was totally unexpected. I expected it to be about his stuffed animals or a game he was playing. I did see him earlier that morning looking out the window for a longer period of time. Now I know what he was noticing. It melts my heart to know that a 5 1/2 year old has thoughts like this. That they can be about God and who he is. I will treasure this forever. I am encouraged to keep teaching Corbin about who God is and His character as well as giving him a Godly worldview. Our children are never too young to learn this.
Clearly the Holy Spirit was at work in this boys heart that morning. Praise God!
Okay... I LOVE this! thanks for blogging and sharing his heart :-)
ReplyDeleteWOW what insight!!! That was wonderful. Treasure that forever- Heidi
ReplyDeleteCorbin has the kind of child-like faith that Jesus talks about in Matthew 18:3. His heart is amazing and his "quote" is precious. - Love Uncle Jeff
