We had a very special day today. We were at lunch talking about our time at church, and then the conversation shifted into a discussion of the differences between Christianity and orthodox Judaism. In the middle of a lot of chatter, our almost 5 year old daughter Angela asked a quiet question. After getting everyone else to quiet down, Iwas able to hear the whole question, "How do you become a Christian?"
I very simply explained that becoming a Christian means accepting that Jesus died for your sins, receiving His forgiveness, and deciding to follow Jesus your whole life. Angela promptly said, "I want to become a Christian."
Kevin took her into our family room and they prayed together. Oh, what a special day! I know that this is just one step in a long road. She has much to learn about the Lord...she is such a little girl! But she did make a decision to follow Jesus and I am so excited and thankful. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for working in the life of our sweet Angela.
