Timmy’s Name
During the month of June I’m going to be sharing some tidbits about Timmy, in honor of my eight year old!
My husband chose Timmy’s name from the Bible, and Timmy just discovered the books in the Bible called Timothy. He’s really excited, especially about the verses…
He’s also been looking up the verses he’s memorized at school and marking his bible with sticky tabs. I just love to see the natural curiosity he has in looking things up and reading his big kid bible. One thing we slacked on during homeschooling was scripture memorization. We did memorize the “Armor of God” but that was it! In school they memorize a verse a week and Timmy is really good at it. In fact, he knows more scripture than I do!
He’s started doing devotions this summer as well and asked me where his bible is. I would have never thought he could even read the bible if it hadn’t been for his teacher encouraging her students to read it. I’m thankful Timmy is interested in reading the scriptures himself and pray his hunger and thirst for knowledge only grows!
