Lessons from a Child

I learn new lessons everyday from my children. Syler has been blessed with such an amazing understanding of God and he loves to share what God shows him. On this blog I will share the things he teaches me about God.

Syler loves to wear a crown. He has several and pretends to be the king or prince every day. He doesn't let anyone touch his crowns or play with them. He enjoys making new crowns out of construction paper and decorating them. His crowns are very special to him. Yesterday he came up to me and said "Mom do you know where the 'real' crown is? It's in here (places his hand on his heart). God told me that He is the real crown, the best crown, and he is right here in our heart."

Wow that is some powerful stuff. Knowing how special Syler's crowns are to him that statement meant alot. God is suppossed to hold a higher place then anything else that may seem important to us. It made me check my life and see if there are any "crowns" that I am placing before Him , the true "crown".   We all get busy and preoccupied but today's challenge is to see where God rates on our importance scale. Love the lessons my son teaches me.
