孩子们说.....

Recently, I was impressed by children. They are my angels.

Little Joshua is only 15 months old and has become my favourite boy!!He just starts speaking broken words or language I can never understand.

One day we were playing in the room with musical instruments, he pulled out the plug from the electric guitar and was about to put into his mouth. I caught him at that moment. I panicked and shouted 'Excuse me baby!' That's what I learned from his mum. My voice was far too loud for him and he was frightened. He cried.....Oh.... I am sorry. I was very nervous myself. I didn't mean to scold you but just didn't want you to get hurt, baby. Oh, go back to mum to get some comfort now.

Then, sweet Joshua opened his arms and fell towards me. HE WANTED A HUG FROM ME! He wants to RECONCILE with me! Wow, he gave me such a big hug.

I didn't know what to say at that moment. He is sooooo sweet. And he is sooooo kind. Also, wiser than I can never imagine.

So..... What shall I do after I was corrected, warned by God? To complain, to moan, or to seek reconciliation by turning to Him.
