"All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto the; they shall sing to thy name." Ps. 66:4
Amy called this morning to tell us that they were singing the special music at the retirement center church service and invited us to go. We always enjoy going when they sing (2 or 3 times a year) so we said, "Sure."
Little did I know the family had a "surprise blessing" in store for me. Amy and I both have worked with Jaden to learn the words of "Amazing Grace" and he can sing 3 verses of it. For their family special this morning, the family (including Jaden!) sang Amazing Grace. I had to shed a tear as I listened to them. I prayed right then and there that Jaden (2-1/2 years old) will TRULY come to UNDERSTAND the AMAZING GRACE of God's plan of salvation for him. Like everyone who hears the Gospel and comes to understand that JESUS CHRIST died on the cross for their sins, Jaden will have to make the personal decision to accept Christ as his personal Lord and Savior or to reject him. That was my prayer this morning, that Jaden will be saved at a young age and live for God with his whole heart. Brian, Amy, and kids: Thanks for the wonderful surprise blessing this morning. It truly blessed my heart!! (Note: I didn't take my camera to church but this picture was made at the retirement center at Easter so represents my blessing.)
