Jesus said that God prepares praise for Himself from children. We have been concerned lately with what seemed like a lack of interest in the Bible and the things of the Lord with both kids. God sometimes has to remind us who is in control and has promised to complete the work He started. We were talking the other day with Matthew about saying something then following through with it. Matthew mentioned the ark and when God had struck dead the man who reached out to save the ark from falling. God had commanded that no one touch the ark so I asked Matthew if it was fair for God to kill Uzzah even though he had good intentions. Matthew said that God had to do it because He said that anyone who touched the ark would die and if Uzzah didn't die after touching it then God would have lied and God wouldn't be God anymore. So I asked what would have happened if he hadn't reached out to catch the ark from falling and Matthew said that God would have stopped the ark from hitting the ground. Wow, that is faith. Sometimes we need to be able to rest in the fact that God is doing things in His way and in His time, and we just need the faith of a child.
