My Bible and a Gun

David just loves to be like his daddy.  Lately he is always telling me he is "going to work" and then he'll take his little "brief case" and put on his shoes and ask me if he can "use the car".  Well the other day I decided to take a look at what exactly he was taking to work in his brief case, I opened it up and found, a cell phone, an orange play gun and a bible.  I got kinda chocked up at that.  So often I feel like i'm not measuring up as a mom, and that because of my failures my boys won't grow up to be the men we desire them to be; so i think that this was a little encouragement from God.  Because that is exactly what I pray we will raise, boys who boldly go forth into the world with their Bible in one hand and a gun in the other.  Boys with a strong spiritual foundation and a burning desire to win the world for Christ, and boys who know it's their God given duty to protect and provided for their family.  Thank you Lord for my little man, with his Bible and his gun!
