I Want Jesus to Come for Me!
December 7, 2009 by Ryan
Here’s a cute story for the holidays:
When we got home from grocery shopping tonight, Kimberly went out to play in the snow without her gloves on. As we were bringing bags in she slipped and fell on her hands which were very red. I was right there to pick her up but she was sad. She eventually started to feel her hands throbbing from playing in the snow and was crying because they hurt so bad.
Through her crying she said, “I want Jesus to come for me!”
I took her to the bathroom to run her hands under cool water and slowly warm them up. She was crying “Jesus, Jesus!” We tried to calm her down and explain that she could say a pray to help her feel better. So we said a quick prayer that her hands would stop hurting and that she could be calm. She calmed down and her hands were no longer so red.
Eventually, she started playing with the water and giggling. I asked her if her hands felt better and she said they were. We then said a quick prayer to thank Heavenly Father for helping her.
It breaks your heart when your kids get hurt but it was so sweet that she instinctively thought that Jesus could help!
