Twelve years ago, I was charged to teach nursery aged children a Sunday School lesson. Now I was just a young mother, not a professional teacher, but I am creative. I remember this scripture, Revelation 3:20 because this scripture changed one of my little students lives and mine too. I taught the kids about salvation with this scripture by making a hand puppet with a brown paper bag, a heart, and a picture of Jesus knocking, and then Jesus in their heart. I led them in the prayer of salvation that day by them repeating after me. I thought, “hey it’s worth the shot.”🤷🏽♀️ Well, a year later, one of those babies became very sick and was in the hospital. They didn’t know if he would live or not. His mama asked him if he knew Jesus, and his response was, “I already know Jesus mama, He lives in my heart.” The mom asked how do you know, he said, “ Ms. J taught me that he knocked on the door to my heart and if I let Him in, He’d live with me forever so I did.” You never know how your obedience will affect someone’s life. That one simple act of obedience led a little boy to salvation. He’s now a sophomore in high school and doing well. I’m so glad that Jesus stands at the door and knocks. He’s such a gentleman. #transformwog #transformingthoughts #revelations320 #simplelesson #simpleobedience #lifesaving #openthedoorofyourheart #letjesusin https://www.instagram.com/p/CPqQGDVLvBczHJY-v2LfXxcr_m4Uc1qCkQ3tTw0/?utm_medium=tumblr
