follow-up from the video in the last post

First off, if you have not watched the video in the last post, you will want to do that before reading this one - or it just won't make any sense. :-)

We went to Christmas eve candle-light service with family. When the Pastor stood up to speak and said he wanted to read from 1 John 4:9-10, Noah confidently yelled out, "I know 1 John 4:9 - it's about Jesus!"

Mine and Richard's hearts melted! It STUCK - it really stuck! I was so excited and proud of him. I really thought he just had memorized it for the 30 seconds of the video - I had no idea he would actually recall it and know what it was about.

That seed is planted firmly in him - and will not return void!

What a wonderful Christmas!!!!

My heart leaped for joy when I read this story! How awesome that Noah recalled John's passage and proudly exclaimed it for your church family to hear!
