We were in the car last night driving home from the bookstore when Joel said something about wanting to sing a song to Jesus. And then he just started singing. As Nik wrote on facebook, it went something like this, “Jesus, you’re the One. You died on a cross. You really did. You died on a cross, yes you really, really did (6x). You died on a cr-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oss. Yes you did. Then you rose again. You died on a cross then you rose again. You are the one that saves us. You …are the only one that saves us.” He went on and on for a few minutes, until we pulled into the driveway. It was really quite precious!
It is so sweet to hear him talk about loving God and knowing that God loves him. We continue to pray that He would have a deep understaning with the passing of time of how amazing God is and how much God truly does love him! He has been longing to get baptized and we long for the day when he really understands what that means and can take the plunge! Until then we are just so grateful that he has a tender heart toward God!

Did he make up that song on his own?
