Eternal Life

Jake asked Jesus into his heart during church yesterday. Before church started he was telling me all about what he learned in Sunday School. They took a tour of the church, and talked about what it meant to have eternal life with God. He said, "Mommy, if you ask Jesus into your heart then you get to live with God forever in heaven." We talked about it a little more, and then I led him in a prayer right before Father Mich walked down the aisle. Perfect timing!

As I was thinking about how special that moment was, I thought about his baptism. He was just a baby and already experiencing God's love. That was also a super special day!

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them,
for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 19:14

Train up a child in the way he should go;
even when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6
