Parents hope that their children remember the things they were taught. Many parents want their children to pray and be close to God, so they teach them to say their prayers every night. When the parents can be there to say their prayers with them, they often wonder if their kids are still doing it.
You wouldn’t think a toddler that still sleeps in a crib would remember to pray.
You defiantly wouldn’t expect her to remember the actual prayers, either. A baby monitor recently caught a young girl saying her prayers alone in her crib before she goes to sleep.
She is in her room alone, but she starts saying her prayers as if to comfort herself. She prays for several minutes while the baby monitor records her every word. She may not have the best language skills just yet, but she sure is good and praying. God knows exactly what’s on her mind and in her heart, so even though all the words aren’t clear, they are being heard by the one who matters.
The little girl’s aunt, Kayla, shared the video online, and it quickly went viral.
Once it made it to YouTube, it started getting all sorts of comments. Most people found the video sweet and inspiring. If this little girl is this good at praying now, it’s safe to say she will have a lot of faith as an adult, too.
Some of the comment on the video include:
“This kid is so adorable. In her young heart she knows how to appreciate life. Thumbs up for her! ”
Another viewer said:
“This is one of the sweetest little videos I have ever seen! God bless that precious baby and her whole family.💖✝”
A lot of viewers also commended the parents for teaching the little girl about religion and how to pray.
It just goes to show that kids are looking and listening to everything. They can pick up the good things and the bad, so it’s better to teach them the right things.
Other comments included:
“So precious! Thank You, mom & dad for teaching her the way life is supposed to be.”
And:
“I am impressed by how much she has learnt from her parents. This is great upbringing. “train a child in the way he should go and when he is old, will not depart from it”. Excellent. I will do my best to make sure my kids appreciate their creator and his blessings in their lives.”
Another viewer said,
“Precious. A real prayer warrior!!! Puts many of us adults to shame. The parents are wonderful role models and are setting this child up for blessing and success in life. ”
There is no doubt that this little girl’s parents were thrilled to see her praying on the camera.
It was probably hard for them to resist running into her room, picking her up, and giving her a big hug.
A lot of toddlers wouldn’t be staying in their bed in the dark, let alone saying their prayers. Hopefully, this little girl continues to watch and listen to the things her parents are showing her. Now that these parents know she is watching, they will probably spend more time teaching her about God and religion. It looks like she is defiantly ready to learn more.
One day, she may end up becoming a preacher or singing in the church choir. She has already touched a lot of people and helped spread the word of God. Who knows what her future holds?
