Goodness! Sometimes I have to analyze what I watch and listen to. I am thinking that taking in or allowing my mind to rest on what comes on tv or the radio may be like sleeping in the wrong person's lap. Maybe the little girl I was talking about could be (gasp!) ME!!!!!! May God bless my little heart with increasing wisdom and desire to walk in grace and mercy. In Jesus' name.

She's in the right place carolyn , hopes she keeps coming and listening

It may not seem like she's interpreting it but it's getting put in her head and a lot of times advice comes back to us later on as we hear the second time and it's a confirmation from God... The fact a child is in the audience and not in Sunday school means she may be more ready than she appears ready...yearning to learn more mature words and she must know, and her parents know, regardless of her facial appearance; she's not being tested in the knowledge level and/or not learning as much in the level of children's school she could be in and she wants to learn more... (Hopefully she is seen on more than one sermon -- esp seeing as this isn't like some special "holiday" reason and exemption... Lol... 😕😒) I am so proud of her parents and my hope is that everyone IS proud of them and maybe moreso any child that attempts to listen or even wants to stay.... And QUIET..!?!?. I always wanted to be in the adults Sermons... (I said just the music but always tried to stay behind or come back in) because I felt like I gained more knowledgeable fruit.... And don't ever give up or lose hope on a child who keeps trying. (I sometimes drew/wound up taking notes durimg to satisfy my child like ways and adhd because I grew a million times more and attached to every sermon when i was there.) I went to bible study for peer time I needed. As time went on -- I wound up doing way more volunteering (I UNDERSTOOD MORE -- it actually helped combined (...sadly the tons... But still grateful for..)..of life hard experiences, to my heart on my sleeve personality, to my giving nature... And add to my understanding spiritually.. TO OVERALL reaching out!!) And so, I craved to go, raised money to go, and WENT on a mission trip in H.S. to Guatemala for weeks... And I'm **PROUD TO SAY** I WAS FOLLOWING in my younger sister's footsteps.. cuz she gave up EVERY adolescent summer in middle and all of H.S. to go volunteer and then over a YEAR LIVING in Guatemela. 😊💧😍☺💧😍 She grew up spiritually mature faster than me & that's ok. I grew & then I really took my love of the sermons and matured in to falling in love with Christ. ➡➡ It took me longer... But prolly because of my adhd I was never encouraged to stay in sermons -- until my mom's last husband (who had severe adhd lol)... I copied him and adapted. (WHICH IS WHEN I learned to do the note taking -- which is where & when our fam actually helped outline/edit/helped create Sermon notes with spaces and gaps for notes to hand out each sermons and not just verses and brief pre-typed notes -- credit: My mom was the pastors editor/writer of sermons and assistant & such for awhile and my then step-dad helped with writing sermons and production/filming too as he had NBC credentials) So anywho yeah, I did notes & even just drew in between my notes (during pastor stories and stuff aka "free listening" -- where I took in advice and drew to keep mind going and to take it in. ). I love all of worship now. I always felt spiritually HIGH which is better than any (well I guess any of the few I've experienced but any in general) worldly 'high' I've encountered. 💜💜 My positivity and optimism soaring. I always have hoped I find another church like my last since I moved... I was going to a good church.... But and then even moreso I really need that; now since my recent life experiences. I wanna actually pastor some & 'preach'/tell my testimony (in oh my gosh.... In however long of parts it will take, lol...) and other sermons to the low income and "hood". I feel it is A HUGE PART OF my purpose on earth. Why I was here was random but why I stayed.... Was very personal & in most ways -- very mission trip and learning experience for me. (I moved TONS in childhood -- 12+ schools from prek to h.s. grad -- And no there was no military reason.... -- part if the long & hard story for a small part of my testimony.... But but when I lived here in middle school days and also when I moved back as an adult now... I never knew about these pocket hoods -- and now I've "lived"/ been in one of the "hood" parts of fort worth (in SW technically; called Como, which has even been devastated from once Lake Como)...just one of many I didn't even know existed for all the sum previous years...) ...Yeah, I've live here over a year and half now... And don't regret this tumultuous yet actually rewarding experience. End ADVICE: ➡Always encourage children in sermons AND do everything to help them adapt in ways to sit and listen. Even if they "don't *seem* to get it"/"look confused"/"act up".... Try ways to keep them just semi quiet and record sermons if poss that they were in to relisten and reinforce no matter how long later!!. 😃😅😘💖💖 ➡As an adult -- in my 30s sadly -- I'm just now really grasping 2nd confirmations or God's confirmations in hearing things twice or whatnot. Aka Getting Confirmation!! ➡➡❗AND waiting for that confirmation sometimes in help/advice/answers ((OR EVEN GIVING IN TO NEGATIVITY OR in giving in to fear or doubt!!! It goes for both! Fear tries to rid of wanting to listen to God/our "Gut"/subconcious OR EVEN to wait for confirmation. Gut listening plays big here but praying and getting confirmation from him if not from secondary so its quicker -- longer & much harder lesson I learned.....)) Never just hear something once worldly but/and always go with your "gut" aka God's small voice. 💯💯💯❗💖❗💖We are BLESSED❗💖❗💖❗💯💯💯 when God answers like that immediately... -Kristen Edited to fix typos and stuff but sure there is still some.

Yes

He gave his only begotten Son...he was able to relate to God on another level. Pain he had never experienced he could relate to his sheep and followers on another level.
