After prayers while tucking in Ember,
she leans in and whispers, “When you grow up are you going to get married?” Alone in the dim light of the evening she knew the potential sensitivity of the question. “Who is he?” ‘I don’t know yet, but when I meet him I’ll let you know. ☺️’ “Are you old enough to get married?” ‘If I got married when mommy got married, that would’ve been 8.5yrs ago. But God has different plans for different people.’
I got to share about God’s perfect timing. And how we can serve God well before we are married because we have more time. And how that gives me more time to spend with her. 🥰
Sometimes in explaining to a young heart, you encourage your own heart, as well.
