Ellie comes up to me and says, "Mom, my heart hurts."
I replied, "You know what makes my heart better? A hug." Then I gave her a big hug, but she still looked sad. So I ask her, "What is the matter? Do you want me to kiss it better."
Ellie tells me, "No. I just need to say prayer. You want to say prayer with me?"
And so we sat kneeling in prayer. Our arms folded and heads bowed. Her little voice thanking God for all His goodness and listing her blessings. Then she whispers, "Please bless my heart not hurt."
It was powerful for me to watch that. Humbling.
