Hungry to learn

"My words are plain to anyone with understanding, clear to those who want to learn.” Proverbs 8:9
It is so unbelievable to me how much wiser our children are then we think, spiritually speaking. What is more amazing is how hungry Avery has become for the word of God. He wants to learn and I LOVE IT!!!! 

This week the boys and I have been reading through the Gospels and studying the significance of Easter and Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection. It has been so amazing to me to see just how much they really do understand God's word. 

For example just last night we finished up reading John 20 and I began asking them why it was important for Jesus to rise from the dead, and Avery says, "So he can live in our hearts mommy, duh."

SIGH...

If I do nothing else in this life, to know my boys love God and His word is enough for me.

Jesus it is amazing what Your word does even in the lives of children. Thank You for allowing us the opportunity and ability to share the word of God with these precious babies who will one day be able to share Your word with others, even their own. Continue to fill Avery and Dax with wisdom beyond their years. May they truly grasp the meaning of Your death, burial, and resurrection. May we all grasp the meaning and significance of it. Jesus make us all hungry to learn. Amen
