Today is a day I will never forget. Actually, the day itself was not that memorable but what happened at bedtime with our 5 year old daughter was! This was a moment that I had prayed for. I wanted to be there when she made this decision and I wanted to walk her through it.
Let me back up. We took Em to Joyride this morning - a baptism class for kids and parents at our church. She has been before nearly a year ago but I knew she was too young and was not ready. Our children's pastor is so gifted in teaching to young kids and we could tell that it really made an impact on Em. She didn't want to pray with us during the class but I wasn't surprised. She has to really mull things over in her mind before she makes decisions. All day long she asked us questions and talked about baptism and God,etc. So, tonight, when Aaron was putting her to bed they were talking and she told him she wanted to pray the prayer to ask Jesus into her heart. Aaron called me in there and we talked to her about it and then Aaron prayed with her. My daughter is going to heaven!! Someday! :-)
