In Our Hearts

Lately Oliver has been asking a lot of questions about Jesus and God. Some include:

• Where does He live?
• How can He be in all of our hearts at the same time?
• How can He be in heaven and in our hearts?
• How long does He stay in our hearts?

We talk about this nightly before bed and sometimes in the car on the way to school. Last night he asked the big question, "Mommy, will you help me ask Jesus to live in my heart?"

Yes, my sweet boy! I would love to! So we did. He asked Jesus to come live with him forever, to help him when he has a hard time making good choices, and to forgive him. The joy I felt radiating from my sweet 5-year-old is something I will never forget!
