"Hey!"

We just finished having our Bible reading together, that is me and my Aprille. Faith is at a Saturday morning practice for the school play. We have been reading Romans together, lots of interesting Bible truth in it. Some of it is deep, difficult, confusing, and some of it is very specific and clear. It's all God's truth.

Well, I turned the page and read the last few verses, and with a sense of joy I turned and looked to Aprille. What? Is she praying? Has the sound of my voice inspired her to seek God? "Hey," I shouted with emphasis and she is startled to attention. "Are you asleep?" I ask, and with her soft little sweet voice she says, "sorry." We laughed and I said, "What better way to fall asleep than to the sound of God's Word."

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. (Deuteronomy 6:6-9 KJV)

Lord Jesus, help us to be faithful. May You find us finding You. Fill us and seal us with Your Word. In the wonderful name of Jesus. Amen.
