I think you'll be proud...

Brody and I were talking about his day at school the other day and he said, "I did something at school today that I think will make you proud."  When I asked him what he did he said, "I told someone about Jesus!"  Is there a moment that makes a parent any more proud than that?!?  Of course I was proud!!  I asked him to tell me what happened and he said that two of the boys in his class were fighting.  He walked over and told them that God didn't like it when they fought like that.  He said he told them about Noah and how people in the day of Noah were being mean and weren't loving God.  He explained that because people were acting like that God sent a flood to destroy the earth.  He told them that God only saved Noah and his family because they loved God.  He told them that God loved them and wanted them to show love to each other too.

Wow.  Nothing like gently telling someone about God! lol!!  I asked him what they said after he told them that and he said, "Well.  They didn't really say anything....but they stopped fighting!"

"Blessed are the peacemakers"...and it seems that Brody is one...great job, Brody.

When you take your place in the pulpit at your first church, I want to sit on the front pew. :)
