We had a little impromptu prayer meeting tonight as a family. I felt like we should all lay hands on Josiah and pray for him. I prayed that just like King Josiah who "did what was right in the eyes of the Lord" that Josiah would grow into the destiny of His name.
A little later, Josiah said, "I can't wait to grow up and be a king." He interprets prayers very literally at this stage! He also said, "Have you put your hands on Parker and Summer yet?" He thought that laying on of hands thing was pretty cool. Truth is, it is.

Mark,
this is something he will always remember and will leave a deep impression on him. Oh if we could only grasp the knowledge that they are all we can take with us and we must show them the way. Ironic, goes along with an earlier post by Michael Hyatt about our kids!
thanks for sharing
Love it! So cute. :) Big smile. May he grow into his name. Karen K

I like that! Thank you for mentioning the amazing power of laying on of hands!
AWESOME!
Absolutely awesome! Sometimes being a parent can feel impossible...but on days like that, it is AMAZING.
That's AWESOME! I am constantly telling my 2 yr old Josiah the story of King Josiah. As dads it's so important for us tell our sons know even before they do anything great that we are proud of them and that nothing is impossible for them with Jesus. I'll pray for your Josiah if you pray for my Josiah!:)
