She knows Jesus is at her side

some pieces of a movie will be given out here in this story but not enough to make you decide to not watch this movie :) I mean if you know anything about the bible you already know that Jesus died and I'm not really telling you much more than that. with that said.....

I believe it was for Easter that the kids got a new movie called At Jesus Side. But for whatever reason they haven't watched it until the other day. I spent some one on one time with my princess tonight curled up in her bed and watched some of it with her. after watching it for a while i told her that we should probably call it a night and watch the rest when it isn't a school night. She said but mom we have to wait until we at least see Jesus. ok, how can i argue with that?? lol
so we continue watching and in a part there were some kids throwing rocks at a dog. every time they hit him i made that "ohh, oww, awww" reaction. Serenity said mommy i know that is sad but wait until you get to the real sad part. that is when Jesus dies. That part will make you really cry. At this point i looked over into my daughters eyes and they were getting that glassy look to them. that, i'm gonna tell you about crying at a sad part b/c it made me cry but i'm not actually going to cry right now. She then said that when she watched it the other night she did cry when they killed Jesus. I reassured her that yes it is absolutely fine to cry b/c Jesus was killed but she is allowed to be happy as well. I reminded her that even after Jesus died he came back and she said yeah i know with a big smile on her  face, "but it's still sad that he was killed." I made sure once more to inform her that b/c Jesus did get killed we will be able to spend wonderful time together when it's our turn to go to Heaven. She kept reassuring me that she knows all of this but it was still sad that Jesus had to die. I love that my daughter has so much love for the Lord at such a young age that she is genuinely sad about Jesus' death.
that girl is going to go to such amazing places in her life with the help of God I just know it :)
