One day....

In the past, Brian and I have talked with Joshua about how (if Hannah asks Jesus to be her best friend) Hannah will have two perfect legs in Heaven, and when Papaw goes to Heaven he'll get his fingers back. This explanation seemed to really resonate with Joshua.

I love to quietly listen in on Joshua and Hannah when they're playing by themselves, and occasionally, I'll hear Joshua remind Hannah that when she goes to Heaven, she'll "get her leg back and Papaw will get his fingers back." It truly warms my heart to hear Joshua talk with Hannah about Heaven. He has such a sweet and tender heart. He's an amazing big brother. We all look forward to the day when we see Hannah running and jumping on streets of gold with two completely perfect legs and Papaw praising Jesus with all his fingers intact. While I truly believe Hannah's legs are beautiful and perfect just as God formed them here on Earth and for His glory, God's Word tells us that, in Heaven, we will be given new, perfect, glorified bodies lacking nothing. What a day that will be! God's grace is truly amazing.
