At the breakfast table this morning I read this verse to the girls,
"Do not make light of the Lord's discipline and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those he loves..." Hebrews 12:5b-6a
In our discussion of how much God loves us, and also as parents how much we love our children but still need to discipline, Sofia shares that that is what God did to Adam and Eve. God sent them out of the garden even though He loved them. YES!!! That's right. I loved how she was drawing upon lessons learned from Scripture. We talked about how we learned that from the book of Genesis in the Bible. And without a blink she quotes Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth..."
SHE'S GETTING IT! This is the beginning of Scripture being in her head and making it to her heart.
