I had my grandson's with me this weekend. It was wonderful. They adore me and I adore them. Every minute they are with me I am actively involved with them. We are either playing with Play-Dow or going for a stroller ride, taking our bath, making cookies. Whatever we are doing, we are doing it together.
At one point I stepped out onto the porch to look at something and my older grandson couldn't find me. He panicked and screamed "Nonna"!!!!! It startled me because I never heard him scream so loud. I bolted through the door only to find his little body shaking and tears on his face.
I thought for just a moment. This is how the entire world will feel when they find themselves alone without God. I needed to teach my grand son that I would never leave him. Nonna will always be here. "You are never alone at Nonna's house". "Nonna isn'g going to leave you.". As soon as those thoughts passed I heard from the Lord; "You also need to teach him about me because when you are gone I will still be here."
When is the right age to teach children about God? I guess it is ever too early. Start today. Join me tomorrow on more on this subject. You are not alone.
Deuteronomy 31:6 (NIV) "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
