Titus
It continually amazes me the many lessons we can learn from our children. Recently, God taught Heather and I something about our own lives, and he used our son to do it.
Titus is our four-year-old. A few weeks ago, his Junior Church teacher taught him in such a way that it stuck. I need to talk to her… and find out how she did that. Hmmmmm…
As we headed home from church that day, Heather asked Titus what he learned about. He told us he learned about the “Spirit of the Fruit.” And we found out what aspect the next morning.
That next morning, Titus woke up, and came out of his bedroom. He demanded of Heather, “I want breakfast now!… Oh yeah, patience.”
Wow! I can learn a lesson from my four-year-old son. How many adults do I know, including myself, who fail to remind themselves to apply Scriptural principles? Sometimes God uses inexplicable means to teach or re-teach me what he wants me to know. I just hope that these principles stick to me as well as they seem to stick to our young children.
Later that day, Titus was being demanding again. Heather reminded him about patience. His response? “I don’t have any of that in my body right now.”
TITUS! I remember when he was in Heather's belly 🙂 He has such a great smile! Keep 'em coming!
Asher misses Titus a ton! He has decided that he doesn't like girls and that Mom's not allowed to kiss him anymore. He says he doesn't have any friends now because he doesn't know the boys at school very well and Titus moved away.
He said today, "I don't like Sky, mom." I said "Why?"
"Because she's a girl and there are lots of boys in my class, but not very many girls, and no Titus."
