I felt a little guilty. It's been so hard for me to focus on any Scripture the past few weeks other than what I can recall from memory. I said, "I'm not sure."
She said, "My favorite chapter in the bible is Revelation 21. Read that."
I told her I would and then forgot about it by the time we reached the school. As she and O were getting out of the van, she stuck her head back in and said, "Don't forget Revelation 21! Make sure you read verses 4 and 5 cause I LOVE 4 and 5".
"Okay, I will".
I drove straight to the track so I could run and decided to look up those verses first. How is it God thinks so much of me, He will continue to comfort me by using my brilliant 7 year old daughter?
Revelation 21: 4-5 ....
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow,
or crying, neither shall there be any more pain:
for the former things are passed away.
And he that sat upon the throne said,
And he that sat upon the throne said,
Behold, I make all things new."
I love her so much! And, I love my Savior and His promises!

You can let her know too... I lead a youth girls small group & I text them daily with scripture... I'm totally going to use this one today for all the girls! Let E know she's teaching girls in Indiana today! :)
He’s just so loving and gracious like that! She’s a sweetheart and that she was prompted to remind you to read those particular verses is such a blessing! Stand in awe of Him today, He will lift your heart and carry your burdens.
