So, there are those times as a mother that are so rewarding......they really make up for all the hard, patient testing moments.
I had one last week....
Isaac and I were driving to find the theatre that he is performing in for his play. I had never been there and so I typed the address into my GPS. (Which John trusts with his life and is always telling me to use it. It's like it's this all knowing brain to him).
So, I was good to go: so I thought..... and then the GPS wasn't right. It took me in circles and to a place where there wasn't even a road.
And, my cell phone was missing so I couldn't even call one of my friends to ask where it was. Of course we were going to be late. So I was getting frustrated and mad at the GPS and then Isaac says, "Mom, we just need to pray."
DING!!!!!
"Oh, your right Isaac! Why don't you say it since I am driving."
So here was his prayer: "Heavenly Father, please help us find the theatre..." (So simple..)
When he finished praying he said, "Mom, you know you and I both have to believe we will find it or we won't."
MELT!!!!!
I felt prompted to just get the ladies attention next to me stopped at a light and ask her. She told me where it was and it was just right down the street. We found it and Isaac said, "I knew we would find it because we prayed."
I was pretty much in tears by now.
I have said all those things to him at one time or another.... But to see that they have sunk in and he believes it is EVERYTHING to me!
