'God's Retecting You'

It came a really bad storm today while Laura Ann was in ballet and on the way home she was telling me that it scared her. We had the conversation about praying when we are scared to ask God for protection, and that we can always feel safe with Him. She immediately said, "Well, I think we should pray right now." So I told her to go ahead and pray.  She let me know that it was ok for me to keep my eyes open since I was driving & needed to see the road.  Ha!

A little background.....Laura Ann sings a lot of her 'prayers' and they are so sweet and innocent. She just makes them up as she goes.  Sometimes they are petitions, but most of the time, they are praise and thankfulness for all God is and has done.  I always tell her that I'm learning so much about prayer from her because I always pray for my needs and for me, but sometimes forget to just praise God.  Laura Ann never forgets the praise.  I've been trying for awhile to get them on video without her knowing & just haven't been able to pull it off, but I had my phone handy & turned on the recorder for this. Here it is.....
"Lightening and thunder, it's nothing to be scared of
lightening and thunder, it's ok
God's 'retecting' you, God's 'retecting' you
It's ok, because God's 'retecting' you
Amen."
