Child-like Faith

Tonight, as we were putting McKenna to bed, we were going through our nightly routine of reading a book, praying, and quoting her bible verses that we've been working with her on memorizing. I'm so impressed because she already has memorized four verses.
She told me tonight that she is ready to learn a new verse....
I love that she already has a thirst for God's word. My prayer & hearts cry is that she never forget His Word that she is 'hiding in her heart' even if she is only three (almost four) years old!
It just made me think of how little I take time out to memorize God's word. I need to make it more of a priority before my little girl passes me up!
Lord, thank you for reminding me through my daughter just what it means to
have faith like a child,
I pray for that unending thirst for Your Word!

The next verse on our list in time for Christmas:
Luke 2:11-
"Today in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you. He is Christ the Lord."

I found a great "quick link" for some great verse for children that I thought I'd share... Click here.
(Scroll to the bottom of the page & there is a quick
reference of verses aligned with familiar children's rhymes or songs.)
I thought it would be fun to hear comments of any ideas your readers use with your children to instill faith & scripture in the hearts of your children.

Thanks for that, I love it... I am going to try to use that link for Katy. Check back at my blog for details and video of the training.
