The Prince & Princesses of my life

There's a little girl inside of me that identifies strongly
with the events of this day.
The grandkids are sleeping over this weekend and we ended our day with a bible story from the best children's bible storybook ever:
The Jesus Storybook Bible
where every story whispers his name....

We read the story on page 256 entitled The Friend of little children which ended with this paraphrase of Matthew 18, 19, Mark 10 and Luke 18: "No matter how big you grow, never grow up so much that you lose your child's heart: full of trust in God.
Be like these children.
They are the most important in my kingdom."


I'm beginning to realize what the true gift of grandchildren is. God wants us to keep that small wondrous frame of mind and heart. I am so very thankful for these reminders in my life!
We are ultimately all princes and princesses of the Great King.
Good versus evil, redemption for the lost, and only when
The Prince arrives
do we find the Happy Ever After.
Even the Disney Dynasty submits to the order of That Story.
