My sweet Annie girl has been hearing the voice of God today and seeing him move in her life! It started with a battle of milk this morning. She really wanted chocolate milk, but we insisted she drink all of her "snowman milk", or white milk, or she wouldn't be allowed to get up from the table. After about 10 minutes she announced, "Mom, I prayed that God would help me drink all of my milk & he said he would!" In less than 5 minutes she had completely drank all of her milk and was free to play. Later this afternoon, while coloring in the toy room she came out and announced that God had asked her if she would obey him and she said yes! She said she would be His servant and go wherever he asked...even to another country! I quickly encouraged her that obeying Jesus is all he asks of us and that we show God how much we love him by obeying.
A little later, I was changing Emily's poopy diaper and Annie announced yet again that God answered her prayer. She said she prayed that the diaper wouldn't stink and it didn't! (I can attest to this as well...it didn't smell). She quickly declared that, "THIS PRAYING STUFF WORKS!"
Lord, let her faith continue to rise!
This is such a great entry! Thank you for sharing, tell Annie all her praying is very encouraging. We miss you guys, know you're always welcome to visit!
