Good Morning Friends! It seems like forever since I last wrote to you! It's been a busy week for Mommie and Daddy, and so I've mostly been staying home with my friends.
We have a good time singing and reading stories and stuff.
But yesterday I had quite an adventure that I must tell you about! For many weeks we have driven past this store nearby, and I keep seeing this huge dinosaur out in front of it! I keep telling Daddy to stop the car because I want to go see the dinosaur, but we are usually in a hurry or there is too much traffic or something and so we've never stopped.
Until yesterday!
But when we did finally stop and I got out of the car, I realized just how BIG that dinosaur was, and he had such huge sharp teeth and long pointed claws, and I was suddenly very scared of the big "monster"!
It made me feel like he was chasing me, and I was really really scared and wanted to get back in the car right away!
Yikes! He was so big, he could have swallowed me whole, if Mommie wasn't holding on to me really tight!
I wanted to run away as fast as I could and hide away from his big sharp teeth and fierce eyes and claws. I was really frightened.
Mommie said when we feel afraid we should always pray to Jesus.
And so I did pray. I prayed that Jesus would protect me from the big monster, and hold me safe in His hands, away from danger and scary things.
The more I prayed, the farther away I got from the monster dinosaur.
The farther away I got, the smaller he became.
As I prayed for Jesus to protect me, He helped me get farther and farther away, and then I could see that the monster really wasn't going to hurt me, and I didn't need to be afraid.
And pretty soon I was safely away, and Mommie and Daddy carried me back to the car where I felt safe and protected again.
Mommie read this devotional to me that my "Auntie Opal" gave me. I like what this says:
It is good to know that God is always with me, even when I am afraid of big monsters. He will protect me and rescue me from my fears. I just have to pray and trust Him and believe.
I hope you have a nice day!!
Remember,
"With God all things are possible!"
Matthew 19:26
