David and the pool...

In the life of a 2 year old, there are daily lessons where we can teach Biblical principles. This I learned from my Mom, one of the best teachers I've ever encountered. Brandt and I have been reading all about David and Goliath... boys love adventures and this was the best illustration. The Lord gave David such bravery to go up against a giant... and to literally, take him out. Every boy dreams of such bravery! We are currently going to swim lessons with Miss Sue every afternoon and it has been very scary for Big Brandt to put his face in the water. So, two weeks into it, we stopped before getting out of the car and prayed that the Lord would make Brandt brave like David. Not a single tear was shed during the lesson... first time in two years. Brandt was so excited to receive two stamps and a ribbon... when we got home he said (in a prayer): "Thank you God for making me brave like David. Amen." Simple? Yes, but so effective! Don't we serve a wonderful Lord who listens to our prayers, even those of a two year old!?
