Growing Testimony

Three and a half years old and Matty already floors me with his insights. When I was putting Matty to bed tonight he had some questions before he was ready to pray. He asked, “How can Heavenly Father hear me from so far away? How is He my Father? I only have one dad. How come I don’t feel Him in my heart when he’s far away like I feel you and dad when you are gone at the temple?” I wasn’t expecting this conversation from the same tiny tot who peed his pants today. 
I assured him that the Father of His spirit loves him more than anyone and that he listens to his prayers because he loves and cares about him. I told him that as he grew to know his Heavenly Father better, by trying to be like Jesus, and learning about him in the scriptures, and praying to him that he’d feel him in his heart too, like I do.
