A faith promoting story

A few days ago we were playing in our back yard and Bryan kicked the boys ball about 30 feet up in the neighbors pine tree.  Ty was really sad but it was so high I had no idea how we would get it down.  It was really cradled on the branch too.  So we told Ty he would have to pray to Jesus and ask him to blow his ball down. So every prayer after that Ty would pray for his ball to get blown down.  Bryan and I were both trying to think of ways to help the ball get down like spraying it with water and getting a huge poll or something. Well last night Bryan starts yelling from our yard for me to come out.  The ball was down in a lower tree low enough for Bryan to reach.  Ty starts yelling "Jesus blew my ball down!"  The cool thing is that while there was a little wind I can't believe it was enough to blow the ball out.  I guess God too the opportunity to build the faith of a little boy.  He keeps telling me that Jesus blew his ball down.  I guess I need to have more faith like my three year old!

That is a great lesson for all of us. We should pray for everything and have faith like your little boy that our prayers will be answered :)
