Out of the Mouths of Babes

I saw this adorable video on Patsy Clairmont's blog and just had to share it.



I love that this child knows all the words - not a mumbled "watermelon" to be heard. (If you've never been in choir, "watermelon" is what you sing if you can't remember the words. Doesn't work with a solo, though.)

Every Gathered Chick should know these words, too. Many people claim they can't memorize Bible verses but almost everyone on the planet can sing the theme to "Gilligan's Island." If you have trouble memorizing scripture, try finding it in song form or make up a tune of your own. Psalm 100 reminds us to "make a joyful noise" so don't worry if you don't sing well, it just matters that you do it. Think about little Zoei - she didn't care how she sounded. She just sang with her whole heart. That's what we should do, too!!

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for little Zoei's reminder that we
can memorize scripture and we don't have to have a good voice to sing to You. Thank You for giving us the Lord's Prayer. Please help us as we live for You. Thank You that, as Gathered Chicks, we can call you "our Father."
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
