Amazed by a 7-year old

We have several journals laying around our house. My wife, Monica, has been very intentional in encouraging our 7-year old daughter Amber to write in them. This not only affirms what she is doing in her first grade classroom, but also (we hope) expands her learning at home.

I found one of the journals left out this morning and read the following. I'm still overwhelmed by it:


He Was Cold But Put Warmth In Me
by Amber

I saw this man by the sidewalk,
nor did I know it was my God.
He was cold from the storm last night
but he put warmth in me.
The warmth of God.
