Vicar's sermon not long ago was about focusing on Jesus.
Joshua has found the joy of rhyming words so he kept saying "hocus pocus". I thought he was just being silly until later that night when he told me we needed to "hocus pocus on Jesus because he took away all the sins."
Out of the lips of children...
We love to offer Joshua choices and the other night at bedtime I asked if he wanted to say "Our Father" or "Now I lay me." He said, "Let's say a different one." So I told him we could make our own. I encouraged him to give it a try.
Here's how it went...
"Dear God, Thank you for Jesus. Amen."
Short, Sweet, to the point.
He has a grasp of the one thing needful, and I couldn't be more thankful.
