"Does God make us happy, Mommy?"



As I was rocking Matthew the other day before laying him down for his nap, Matthew looked inquisitively up to me and asked, "Does God make us happy, Mommy?" I sat there a bit stunned for a moment, blown away that my 2 1/2 year old little boy asked such a question. The conversation that ensued was a sweet one. Replying to his question with an affirmative, I talked to him about how all of us ultimately need God and He is the only one who can truly make us happy. And, though joyful may have been a better word than happy since joy is enduring no matter what our circumstances, whether we feel happy or not... I was so touched by my son's pure, sweet inquiry.



The Holy Spirit invites us to Himself.


I see Him inviting Matthew so clearly already. :-)
