My boy Andy accepted Christ as his Savior last night. It’s something we’ve been praying for for quite some time. 
We’re so excited for him as he begins his life as a child of God.
He came bounding out of VBS last night and said, “Mommy, I got saved!” He was grinning from ear-to-ear as he told me the story about how he and Daddy prayed together in the church library. What a sweet time for him!
I kept hugging him and told him that a year from now, we’d have a birthday party at home for him. “Cause you’ll be one in God’s eyes then!”
“A birthday party? Will I get presents?” he asked.
I laughed. “Um, maybe. We’ll have to wait and see.”
“Can I get shin guards?!”
Leave it to my five-year-old to capitalize on a life-changing decision… apparently his new-found faith still has room for baseball.
And I’m so glad.
Well you know yourself, Christians get kicked in the shin many times.
Praise be! Give that boy a hug for me…what a wonderous thing. We will be praying for him as he begins walking. or more like running on this path of faith.
Ahhhh. What great news to begin a day with. Thanks for sharing…
Praise the Lord! :0) That is so wonderful. My husband and I have had the privilege of leading our oldest two to the Lord, which is amazing, but the important thing is that they get saved! I’m rejoicing with you.
I’ve been trying to think of creative ways to celebrate their second “birthdays”. Any ideas? I have nothing. :/
