Happy 26th Jonn


Sitting together on a quiet Hawaiian afternoon Jonn began talking under his breath.Of course that's not unusual for a child of five but I turned and asked " Are you talking to me?'
" No Im practicing talking to God so that when I ask Him into my heart He can hear me"
Smiling I explained that He always hears and always knows where you are.

So on that quiet afternoon Jonn bowed his head making the decision to always be heard by Him.
"Mom it felt like a tickle when Jesus came into my heart."

Today -his 26th birthday- I am so thankful that I taught this child the Life giving message of Gods good news.

And today as a family we miss celebrating his earthly years, but my Mother's heart finds deep pleasure that his life celebration continues as he stands in the company of the One who always hears.
