“Mommy!” Mara called from her room. “Jesus is right here! With me! Come and see Him! . . .” She sat smiling smugly on the bed.
“See?” she motioned to the void behind her. “He’s right here.”
Our conversations about Jesus’ presence are becoming more complex. Yes, He is always with us. No, we cannot see Him because He is a spirit.
I pray that God will help her to understand whatever she is capable to understand at this age . . .

Then. . . after dinner tonight . . .
“Be quiet now because I’m going to read my Bible,” Mara told me, walking to the couch with her little pink Bible. “I need to read it to Pink Bear.”
So she and Pink Bear sat on the couch, and she opened her Bible.
“When Jesus began, there were lots of things He knew,” she said. “And He wanted you to know, ‘Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.'”
That’s right, Mara. You tell Pink Bear!
Praise God for His wonderful work! Obviously she is being taught by word & by example! Thank you Becky & Daniel. She is learning, & we’ll keep praying for her to have a yielded, trusting heart to what He reveals. He is good.
