Last week at our community group meeting (church small group with five married couples), Isabel led worship. She picked out three kids’ songs for us to sing together, and Esther played guitar. We sang, “Deep and Wide”, which is about the love of God, “Jesus Loves Me”, and “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.”
Before we began singing the last song, Isabel explained that she chose this song because it was about God’s creation. She said Esther told her it wasn’t a worship song, so we couldn’t do it for group, but Isabel had insisted, “Yes, it is! When we look at the stars, we think about God!”
When the songs were through, she prayed out loud, with her eyes squeezed tightly shut, thanking God for all the beautiful things He had made, stars, and sun, and flowers, and her mommy. She is only four years old, but she gets it. And she inspires me.
