Lone Star Academy - Princess "C"'s prayer today

Dedicated to the Biblical Principle of
Deuteronomy 6:5-8

"Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates."

Sep. 5, 2007 - Princess "C"'s prayer today
Funnies

Today we were doing our Bible time and part of our mission studies is learning and praying for the 10/40 Window. Today's city was Beirut. After learning about the city's religious make-up and history, I read several prayer points about the city and its people.

After I am done reading I ask Princess "C" if she would please say a prayer for Beirut and it's people. She is praying along and I notice that she is mispronouncing Beirut by saying Beiruth. I dare not interrupt her because I know she is making an honest mistake and doing her best to to pray for this city and these people.

The prayer continues and the next thing I know, she is praying for...

The Great Bambino!

The Sultan of Swat!

You've got it, instead of praying for Beirut, the capital city of Lebanon

Princess "C" was now praying for Babe Ruth! OOPS!!!! Prince "T" and I immediately started cracking up and we couldn't control ourselves. Princess "C" caught herself right after she said it and started cracking up as well. Needless to say, prayer time was over.

God has an incredible sense of humor (have you ever looked closely at a Mandrill?) and I just know His sweet Princess, who made a very innocent mistake, gave Him something to smile about today when there are so many horrific things going on in this world.

I find that my 4 yo is the funniest at prayer time. He prays for everything on his mind. I like the prayer book with Core 5 although we summarized/skimmed most of the intro chapters.

Hopefully your herbs do well. I was going to post some new garden pic's today but I couldn't find the camera. I should tomorrow or Friday.

Thank you for stopping by. I enjoy reading your blog!
