A child prayers

I was amazed.

My girls got invited to a friends birthday party last week, I tried to give them money for a gift but they told me they got her a gift already.

I asked my wife if she had helped them get a gift she told me no.

When we dropped them off I asked once again if they needed some money to put in the card or something since I had seen no gift. No they replied we told ya dad we got it.

When I picked them up The childs mom came to my wife and I and was almost in tears when she had told us our daughters had given a gift to her as well as her daughter. I asked what was going on . The childs mom replied when it came time to open gifts my daughters had stood up and prayed for the girl and her family and asked God himself to bless the child and her family and to lead them on the path that God alone has mapped out.

The family is not really church goers but they sure found the church this past Sunday where the whole family prayed for forgiveness and asked to be baptized.

The Lord still uses the child. My heart was overflowing. I could only say 1 thing to my wife. THEY GET IT.

And Found, in the midst of your own sorrows and feeling like a failure, look at what you've done! You've raised good, inventive, Godly young ladies. Praise God!

I love you…I love you…I love you. - God

It just goes to show you that God is always working threw us even when we don't notice it.

I can never take credit for this it was never me. My girls had seen threw my armor straight to my heart.

God blessed me with them so they could teach me.

We bless the Lord for those precoius intercessors. We also could do with thier prayers right here on AfterHim. May they in Christ continue in their noble service and may the Lord preserve thier parents for obeying scripture in light of teaching Gods Word and will to thier children. That is a reason to celebrate and thank God Sir!

Hi Found. I can't imagine what a proud dad you must be right now. It's wonderful to hear about young people who take their faith seriously. How old are your girls?

What a blessing. I see it, too, as an encouragement to you, Found, in all you're going through. What an awesome blessing from God in this time.

God bless you and your family.

Bob

Wow.... Wow..

Man that just almost brought ME to tears!

Brother, no matter WHAT you may going through, His Word is not returning void! Your precious girls are seeing in their father the love of Christ for others, including them..

Press on brother, press on.. God is about to start really turning your life around in ways you could never imagine.

The Kingdom of God

Jesus said" allow the children to come unto me and do not hinder them, for such is the Kingdom of God. I pray that I would have a childlike attitude when I pray.
