Faith like a child

Let me set this up for you...we live in tornado alley. Last night we had crazy storms with tornadoes, baseball size hail, and winds up to 80 mph. It was nuts....living in Oklahoma my entire life you get pretty used to the drill...sirens going off, power goes out, you take cover, and you wait. The only difference last night was my husband, my rock, my security, the one that keeps me calm wasn't there. He was 4 1/2 hours away at my parents house working harvest. I was extremely calm on the outside and completely freaking out on the inside. I was like a duck paddling like crazy underneath, but calm on top of the water. My three kids (7,5,3) and I were in our closet, with our helmets on, with our flashlights and waiting. Waiting for the storm to hit. Waiting to see what aftermath the storm would live behind. Waiting to see if I could keep it together for the family. Then the storm hit..the hail was so loud that my sweet baby boy Case began to cry and tremble while clinging to me for dear life. As I tried to console him, wishing Chris was here to console me, I hear the sweetest voice say the sweetest thing,"Case, Jesus says we are not suppose to have fear, but He will take care of us." Then I heard a voice that took charge of the closet, "Case, with God all things are possible."
And at that moment I understood what Jesus meant when he said "Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it." Mark 10:15
They got it! My two oldest stepped up...Heck, I was ready to accept Christ again right there in their closet, I was so moved by their faith. They believed what Jesus said over what was going on in the world. They believed Jesus and not in their situation. They believed Jesus in the midst of a great storm. I couldn't help but ask, "Where has my faith like a child been"....honestly, focused on the storm. When something broke, I focused on how we were going to pay for this instead of believing Jesus, "I will meet your needs." When things were stressful at work, I focused on how to fix it instead of looking to the "author and perfector of our faith." I have been so focused on telling God how big my storms were, when I should have been telling my storms how big my God is. BA BAM!!!!!
To grow spiritually, sometimes we don't need to know more, but just do what we already know...."like do not fear, God will take care of me or With God all things are possible" My children's faith strengthened my own! Oh I hope they never lose that "in your face, Satan" or "Whatever world, I love Jesus" or "Storms? Bring it"......kinda faith!
As we sat in that closet, and my children spoke Truth to calm Case (and momma), we turned on Jamie Grace and Toby Mac's song "Hold Me" as loud as we could and sang it as loud as we could. The crazy thing, when we focused on God, we couldn't hear the storm any more. What storm do you need to straight up speak Truth into?
