Our eight-year-old son has never participated in the Global Quiet time because it's at 5:00am in the morning for us. We never even thought to suggest it at this young of an age because it's pretty early on a Saturday for a little guy, but obviously The Lord didn't think so.
Late last night, Noah was suppose to be sleeping and he snuck out of bed to come tell us something, I was just about to get upset with him when he said, "Can you make sure dad wakes me up for Quiet Time tomorrow?" No doubt, our hearts swelled when he asked.
This morning my husband and I raced downstairs to wake Noah up, whispering, "Do you still want to get up for Quiet Time?" Noah's sleepy eyes quickly lit up and he jumped out of bed and got ready. It was pretty special to see this all happen knowing it was only The Lord that placed the desire in Noah's heart.
I wrote this special moment down in my Quiet Time Journal, and as I read the Quote and Scripture on the page I could only smile. I most certainly believe and claim this Quote and Scripture for our entire family.
But in the midst of all of it, through every age and every prophet that had been or would be, there is going to be a certain amount of people that's predestinated to hear that Message, and they'll follow It. Those ignore the crowds. They ignore the criticism of the unbeliever. They--they have no argument with them. They've got one thing to do, that's believe and to get every bit of It they can, soak It in like Mary who set at the feet of Jesus.
