"In a few weeks..."?

Out of the mouths of babes


The below was sent to me today from friend Jeanne St. Clair (she types in all caps):

DEAR JIM,

I COULDN'T WAIT TO GET HOME TO BE ABLE TO E-MAIL YOU ON THIS. MY 4-YEAR-OLD NEPHEW CALLED ME THIS MORNING AND SAID THIS TO ME, "GOD IS GOING TO CALL US UP THERE IN A FEW WEEKS." I ASKED MY SISTER WHERE DID HE GET THAT FROM AND SHE ADMITS THAT SHE IS REALLY ASTONISHED. SHE NEVER BRIEFED HIM OR ANYTHING, JIM. WHERE DID THIS COME FROM? IT WAS SO EXCITING TO HEAR HIS LITTLE VOICE AND HEARING THIS BLEW ME AWAY!

(Bramlett note: This is amazing. Even if he had heard it before, which he apparently hasn't, that is not something a 4-year-old boy would normally understand, remember, be interested in, or call his aunt about. Does this kid know something? He might! If he does, he's talking!)


Added later:

Since the above was written, two other moms of little girls have said basically the same thing. This is amazing. Here they are:

1. Kelly posted on the Five Doves site: "I have a 3-year-old little girl, and she said that Jesus is coming in the clouds and we are going to be flying up to meet Him in the sky, plus she was talking about angels in the sky with Jesus. What is so amazing is that she came out with it on her own, nobody was talking about this subject and she just came out and said it."

2. Deborah, in the UK, says: "In May my little girl announced to me this (I recorded it): 'Jesus is coming to meet me! He's coming to say hello! He's coming soon! He's coming to meet you too!'" Deborah adds, "She'll be 3 years old this 1st October. Actually she was born on the evening Rosh Hashanah started in 1997... At the time she said it we were watching a TV programme about Easter and the Resurrection. Later I thought she was practically quoting 1 Thess. 4:14-17 - although to my knowledge she's never heard that."

All this from 2-4-year-old children. Also, a friend wrote and said just a day or two earlier that the Lord had given her this confirming verse, "Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?" (Matthew 21:16).
