Childlike Faith
by Kendall & Bailey Snow (sons of Rod & Vonda Snow)
1 John 4:15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God.
Kendall (13 yrs. old): I asked Jesus into my life when I was 6 years, old. It was when I was in my Grandpa and Grandma Ruppert’s class here at church. One Sunday they explained how to have your sins forgiven and become a forever friend of Jesus. I prayed with Matt, the class helper, and I put my trust in Jesus. Ever since that day, I have been walking with God and growing in my faith through reading His Word and prayer.
Bailey (9 yrs. Old): When I was 5 years old I gave my life to Jesus. It was a Sunday afternoon and Kendall and I had gone home with my Grandpa and Grandma Ruppert after church. We played for a while and then my brother and I had evening Bible devotions with my grandparents. I remember that Jesus was talking to my heart and I asked my grandparents if they could pray with me to trust Jesus as my Savior. I prayed to Jesus and He came into my life. Jesus is my best friend and I trust Him more and more everyday.
Prayer: God, help me to come to You with childlike faith. May I not attach any of my worries or doubts to the requests of my heart. Help me to simply walk in Your truth even when I can only see enough light for the step I’m on.

ReplyDeleteI remember both of the days when my boys gave their lives to Jesus. It is wonderful to know that they can grow up knowing their creator through a personal and meaningful relationship. Thank you to all the family members and church friends who have and are at the present guiding Kendall and Bailey on their journey of faith. Keep praying for them to seek God's wisdom always and in everything.
ReplyDeleteI didn't become a Christian until I was an adult. I truly admire you for placing your complete trust in the Lord at such young ages.

Thanks to the boys for sharing their story of salvation! Let us always remember to thank the Sunday School teachers as they lead the children to Christ!
