Can we talk?

A Child's Prayer

         The other night my brother, his daughter, and two grandchildren were out of town, for an event. They took a wrong turn on one of the highways and bypasses in a high traffic area and were going in the wrong direction. They didn't know which way to go.

         
The four year old in her car seat must have picked up on the panic. She said, "We're going to have to talk to the Lord about this." So she bowed her head, and said, "Lord, please, help us."

         Eventually, they were back on the road again, and her mother commented that it was the right way. My brother, "Well, she prayed for God to help us."

         She confidently said, "And he did."

         Prayers don't have to be fancy or lengthy, just faith-filled. How bright for a four year old to pick up on these concepts.
