I am happy to announce that Katie, age 8, has accepted Jesus into her heart. She is SAVED! Let me tell you her story. We were in the car coming back from some fun time with friends, singing songs together and laughing when out of no where, Katie says to her Daddy, "So when am I going to be baptized?" Cory turns down the Kid Rock song on the radio and says, " Katie, can you repeat what you said for me?" So she repeats her question. Her Daddy then replies with "Well, do you know what you need to do before you are baptized?" She says, "Yes, ask Jesus into my heart, Which I have done like 1,000 times already." Cory and I both chuckle and Cory says well then let's talk about it with our good friend Daniel (our children's minister). So that night when Cory was tucking Katie in, they prayed a prayer of salvation and the next day when Katie woke up she wanted to talk with Daniel. She spent some time with Daniel yesterday at church and now we are planning a baptism. How exciting! I found out yesterday that Katie said that the reason she had thought about baptism is because we at heard a song on the radio about the devil and a boy that played the fiddle and she said she wanted to play the fiddle for God not the devil. We all know the song "The Devil went down to Georgia" by Charlie Daniels. We have heard it many times on the radio, but what an interpretation by an 8 year old. Oh and when she was talking with Daniel, he was telling her how Jesus cleans us and he is the best cleaner, and when Daniel asked her if her mommy was a better cleaner, my Katie said "Well, I don't know about that because my mommy is a very good cleaner and makes our house so clean. I thought that was so sweet, but she knows Jesus is a much better cleaner.
