Today during worship (not an appropriate time) my youngest child Malachi who is my lover, touchy, feely, kiss you innapropriatly, want to get married right now child, he looks over at his big cousin Miranda, who is 18 and he's watching her worship and he says to me " Miranda is big now, she needs to get married" I said "well she will get married someday but she has to find a good Godly man first" and so he takes his time and looks around like he's searching church for this Godly man. He says " well he needs to be big, not little, and he needs to be a boy, not a girl, cause she's a girl" and I said " yes of course, your right he does"
He then says " I know mom, I know who she should marry! The president!!"
I told him " well buddy the president is already married, but that's a very nice idea"
I learned a few things today:
1- my son CARES about his family ( he loves you Miranda)
2- he knows she deserves the Best! In his eyes the president is the highest, the best, an adult who would be good for her. (Even though we know there's much better out there for her)
3- he has learned the biblical design for marriage, that what we say, and what we show is important because he's watching and listening always...
Miranda we love you, and God has big things for you, bigger than the president! You have purpose and drive and no matter what comes your way, when you walk with the Lord He will direct your path and even the little people in your life care what decisions you make.
