Diary of Ige

Happy Sunday everyone! Listening to a message this morning reminded me of a little story I had written a few months back for my kids to help them learn to pray and trust God for healing. I thought to share it this beautiful Sunday morning. 😊 Nana Flo : Why the sad face Toby? Toby : Nana Flo, I was going to go over to play on the PS4 with Ben next door, he is not feeling so well again and can’t even play with me! Toby sobbed. Nana Flo: That's a pity, I hope he feels much better. Would you like us to hold hands and pray for him? Toby: Would that work Nana Flo? I really want him to feel better, he is one of my nicest friends! Nana Flo: Of course! Oh Toby!
