I had invited several of our unchurched
elementary homework club kids to an overnight church camp. Tayla and I prayed
God would help her be brave.
The next week Tayla’s friend Patty came
running, “Miss Annie, Miss Annie! You’ll never believe what happened! Tayla said something I never thought I would
EVER hear out of her mouth!”
Not knowing what would be coming next, I
motioned the girls over to a quiet spot so the other kids wouldn’t hear.
Patty continued, “She said, ’Can I spend
the night at your house?’”
Tayla beamed and nodded, “I did it Miss
Annie! I’m going to camp!”
What a great idea! Spend the night somewhere close first. It seems like a no-brainer but I didn’t think
of telling her to do that. I love seeing
God answer kids’ prayers!
Tayla had the time of her life at that
2-night camp this winter, learning so much about Jesus, and next week, she is going
to a week Christian summer camp.
Unafraid!
I can’t wait to find out what God does
next in Tayla’s life.
