A little boy came up to one of the volunteers at the Freedom Festival at Fellowship Baptist Church in Thonotosassa, Fl, pointed to the table with the ABC’s of Salvation. He said “I want that.”

He had seen the “3 Things God Can Not Do” display board, but did not wait to talk to that volunteer.

Not understanding what the boy wanted one of the other volunteers told him that there was not anything to give him. Both volunteers did not know what he wanted.

He would not leave and again said, “I want that.” And pointed to the soul winning table.

Finally, the volunteer ask him, “Do you want Jesus in your heart.”

“Yes”, the little boy answered. After explaining to him that Jesus could forgive him, the boy prayed.

He was so excited that he jumped up from the table and ran off without even telling his name or information.

That little boy knew what he wanted and needed. Jesus tells us to let the little children to come to Him. We have to be in tune with children when they are ready to come to Jesus.

Mark 10:14 – But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
