Yes, Jesus loves me

 
There are a few things that I hoped my girls would glean in our home as they grow up. First that they would know God's unconditional love through us, and then for themselves as they get to know Jesus. David and I pray daily that God will show our girls who He is. In the past week I have encouraged Eiley that she can hear God speaking to her. Taliah, Eiley and I made some mini cakes one morning and I told her we were going to ask God to tell us who needed a blessing and then we would take them a cake. So I said" Jesus, would you show us who needs a blessing?" I then asked Eiley who's name God was showing her. She mentioned the man who works at the local hardware store, as well as some friends of hers. So we took each one a note and a little blueberry cake. Then yesterday I was preparing supper and Eiley was sitting next to me. Out of the blue she says " Thanks God". I looked at her and said "hmm?"
"Oh God was just talking to me", she replied. "He said 'I love you', so I said Thanks God"
My heart swelled with joy. I told her that she was hearing God and that telling us how much He loves us is His favorite thing to do. "He just said He cares for me too," her little voice piped up. "Wow that is so great," I chimed in. A few minutes later she giggled out loud and said "Again?!?!....God just keeps saying 'I love you I love you I love you' God must love me alot Mom."
" Oh He does Eiley," I replied.
All day I just was thanking Jesus for speaking to my little girl, that the first time she spontaneously heard His voice, she heard Him say I love you.
