Jesus Changes My Heart

While reading the Bible with Connor tonight Matt recapped what they read last night. It was the story of Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus. Last night they talked about how God changed Saul/Paul's heart and that God has changed Mommy & Daddy's hearts. Matt also told Connor that he hoped one day God would change Connor's heart too. Connor also recently learned where his physical heart is in his body. So as they recapped tonight their conversation went something like this:

Connor: Changed? (pointing at Paul)
Matt: Yeah, Did God change his heart?
Connor: Me? (pointing to his own heart)
Matt: Will God change your heart?
Connor: Yeeeah
Matt: Yes, Connor, one day God will change your heart.
Connor: Jesus? Heart?
Matt: (beaming from ear to ear) Yes, Jesus will come live in your heart one day when you ask him to.
Connor: Yeeeah. Chanch (change) me!

My precious child is learning the foundational truths of the universe. God, through His son, Jesus Christ, will change his heart when he surrenders that heart to Him. I stood at the kitchen sink with tear filled eyes praising my Father for the blessing occurring in my living room.
