Here is a link to a cd we LOVE.
Today, the girls and I went to Wednesday evening service...we don't get to go very often because little H thinks she has to be in bed at 7:45; and with 2 little ones who don't sit through service, and only one car...well, you get the point :) Anyway, we were on our way to church tonight, listening to Walking with the Wise. The song was I don't have to Hide. Here are the lyrics to the chorus:
"If I confess my sins, I'll find mercy...Blessed is the one who fears
the LORD, and admits his sin. Blessed is the one who trusts the LORD,
who alone forgives. JESUS died so I don't have to hide anymore."
Lily asks me: "Mommy, why would we want to hide from Jesus?" Here's how our conversation went on...
Me: "No, we don't have to hide from Jesus. Lily, do you remember what we learned about Adam and Eve in the garden? Adam and Eve sinned and ate of the fruit. What did they do next?"
L: "They hided from God."
Me: "Why do you think they hid?"
L: "Because they sinned, and they was afraid."
Me: "You're right. They knew they had done wrong, and they were afraid, so they hid from God. But Lily, what did Jesus do?"
L: "Jesus died for our sins."
Me: "Yes, he did. Jesus died to pay for our sins. Because of what Jesus did, we can confess our sins to God, and he will forgive us. If we trust in Jesus, we don't have to hide because of our sin anymore!"
L: "Oh I understand, mommy!"
:)
Ohh this little girl.
Lord, bring her to a saving knowledge of you!
