One of the many amazing things about Jonathan being home is ...He is able to read our passages with the kids and help them understand the word. He always brings such insight. What an amazing man of God I have been blessed with...and my kids have been blessed with.
Yesterday, We read about Abraham being tested ....When God asked him to sacrifice Isaac his only son... Jonathan brought up how God asking Abraham to sacrifice his son mirrored how He would sacrifice his son so that we might be saved. I think the kids listen more readily when Daddy is reading..
Just fine with me!
Some things they say they are learning lately...
Anastasia
"I learned that when God told Abraham to sacrafice Isaac he was just testing Him. Sometimes God will test us but, we can trust Him"
Jonathan
"Isaac needed a wife and he got a girl named Rebecca ...and that taught me that if God asks you to do something just do it. God will take care of you when you obey"
Josiah
"I learned that God asked Abraham to kill Isaac and then God said stop... and that is teaching me.... TO NEVER KILL MY SON..... (with a huge smile as if to say....Just kidding mom) This kid is funny! What a joker!
Anneliese
"Abraham was gonna kill his son because Jesus said so...and then he didn't because Jesus loved Isaac"
