Heaven Bound

With Easter, and answering questions about the resurrection of Jesus it was natural to come up the conversation of salvation with Maya. She seemed to understand that Jesus died for your sins and you had to accept that and that you are sinner so you could go to heaven and not hell when you die. BUT she did not want to pray to accept Jesus. She hmmm and haad and when asked just didn't want to pray, we didn't push it but did offer to help her pray. Until one day she said she was ready to pray at bed time after Awana. So all day she talked about how she was going to accept Jesus in her heart.....and she did it!!!

We all hid under the covers and Luke and I took turns saying parts of a simplified sinners prayer with her. She isn't exactly a changed person but now she will participate in night time prayers and will say amen ( for some reason that freaked her out), but we can pray for that. Now she is rather eager for Ever to Jesus in his heart.
