A Child's Heart at Christmas

I was just reading a precious post over on Tiany's Blog about keeping Christ in the hearts of our children during Christmas time. I encourage you to read it and share your own ideas as well!

I thought I would quickly post a sweet letter my six year old daughter wrote to Jesus a few days ago. I have one on my fridge that my oldest son wrote as well. It is a blessing when we know our children's hearts aren't so full of the world's views of Christmas. Their hearts are so fresh and innocent! Let's nurture that AND learn from it!

Blessings!

~Ephesians 6:4~

"Let no Christian parents fall into the delusion that Sunday School is intended to ease them of their personal duties. The first and most natural condition of things is for Christian parents to train up their own children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." Charles H. Spurgeon

The Best Textbook

"If you love your children, let the simple Bible be everything in the training of their souls, and let all other books go down and take the second place." J.C.Ryle
