Little Girls Prayers

I am so excited LaShanna has started to really pray sometimes with my help others all by herself. My mom Sister Darlene stayed with us for Christmas and LaShanna chose that time to start praying by herself it was sweet to see my moms faith grow as she watched this little 4 year old pray thank you sweet Lord for using my LaShanna to strengthen mine and my mothers faith. As her small little voice started to ask God to bless the food and to help the brethren that were sick tears of joy ran down my checks to see her faith and love for the Lord. (Thank You God) As I raise my little one in the faith at the same time I am growing in the faith I have prayed daily for God to show me that I am doing what he wants and raising LaShanna as he would want me to I often feel that I am lacking and than God gives me the answer to my prayer and Little LaShanna prays wow God is truly the very best father and teacher as I do all day every day I want to thank God for his mercy and his love.

Oh, isn't it wonderful to hear our little ones talk to our heavenly Father? I remember how it felt to see my kids and my grandbabies ask for the blessings at dinner and when we would go and pray for someone, they too would say their little prayers. If this does our heart so much good and lifts us up, wonder how God feels? There is probably no words to express His joy. I pray you and your family has a wonderful new year in the Lord.

Oh what joy kids can bring us. I remember when our two oldest started saying prayers. It just fills your heart with such joy and makes you feel like you must be doing something right.

Hello, it has been a long time! I'm sorry about that, I'm trying to get caught up though :) It is so awesome to hear that little kids are praying. You know you've done something right, when you hear prayers from children. I personally didn't really pray until I was a teenager, and it took a while to get confidence to pray outloud, so I think it is wonderful that they are praying so young. My kids have been praying for several years. I did that so they would have the confidence to pray outloud way before I did. I hope you have a happy new year!
