He’s Good


I am foregoing my web postings for this evening. Tonight my heart is filled with grief and I just don’t have the energy to write. This morning Terri died. The nation witnessed a public execution of the innocent and it made my heart sick. This afternoon we found out that a family we love and care about is going to loose their 7 year old daughter to terminal cancer. There is so much sadness in life sometimes and tonight I have tears with no words.

There was one little bright spot today though. My mother in love called to tell me a story that was precious to me. A couple of days ago, she took Tanner into an antique store with her. They saw a picture of George Washington and she was explaining to Tanner how he was the 1st President of our country. My three year old looked at his grandma and said, “I like Jesus. He is good”.

You don’t always know how much your children absorb until someone else tells you what they repeat. Of anything I could teach my little boy about God’s character though, I can’t tell you how much joy it gives me to know that the first attribute Tanner has learned is that God is good. I needed to be reminded of this today. How precious that the words came out of the mouth of my babe.
