Joyful Mother of Children - Something Precious

August 30, 2008

Something Precious

Don't you just love it when God lets you get a peek inside your child's heart? It's times like these that I treasure the most and keep tucked away.

Yesterday I took my sweet 6 year old Matthew with me to run errands. We were listening to KLOVE and the first few bars of a song I'd never heard before started to play. It was very beautiful. Suddenly Matthew's little voice from the backseat piped up and said, "Mom, I heard God talking to me. He told me that He loves me."

I had to pause and blink away the tears forming in my eyes before I replied, "Yes, Matthew, He does love you. And when you take the time to listen you'll hear Him more and more." I then sat in line at the bank drive-up window praising God for taking the time to make Himself real to Matthew, and for allowing me to be blessed by being right there when it happened.

I believe this is another one of those memories that will pop into my head on Matthew's wedding day. I'm telling you, it'll be by God's grace that I'm not a mess of a crying mom when that day comes.

Here is a video and the lyrics to the song we heard. It's titled Divine Romance by Phil Wickham.

Divine Romance

Lyrics:

The fullness of Your grace is here with me
The richness of Your beauty’s all I see
The brightness of Your glory has arrived
In Your presence God, I’m completely satisfied

For You I sing I dance
Rejoice in this divine romance
Lift my heart and my hands
To show my love, to show my love

A deep deep flood, an Ocean flows from You
Of deep deep love, yeah it’s filling up the room
Your innocent blood, has washed my guilty life
In Your presence God I’m completely satisfied

I had never heard this song - the words are beautiful and thought provoking. I love how our little ones are growing into knowing Him! Thanks for sharing about this incident with your little guy. What a joy it is when they say those kinds of things!
