Tribute to Noah on his 9th Birthday

Happy Birthday, Noah...we are so proud of who you are in Christ!! Your name means 'comfort' and that's exactly what God has given us through you - comfort in knowing that you know the difference between being a leader and a being a follower, comfort in watching you not be ashamed to share your faith with others, comfort in knowing that, while you ultimately belong to God, He has been gracious enough to loan you to us while here on earth. We love your smile, your personality, your gentle yet competitive spirit...but most of all, we love your heart!!! We are all so blessed to you have in our lives!!

"Je$us looked down upon the earth
and what did Je$us see?
That nine year old Lasiter boy
a soul winner he could be.

So when the age was right that Noah
ask Je$us to come in,
Forgive him for all his wrong
and save his soul from sin,

He prayed 'Je$us forgive me
for all sins' and let me trust
and live for you until this life shall end.

One day he told his daddy,
Dad's heart was filled with glee,
a M just like you
someday I want to be.

Wise daddy said to Noah,
He held him by his hand,
You don't have to go far away
to another foreign land.

You can be a M
right here in Fort Worth.
You can tell your friend or anyone
about the second birth.

Je$us gave Noah courage.
He helped him to be brave
To tell his friends about the Chri$t
that came to earth to save.

So Noah told one friend
and then he told two,
how Je$us died upon the cross
to save both me and you.

Noah was born the first time
on September twenty-two.
Today we celebrate that day
with ice cream-cake-a-roo.

But Noah has two birthdays
not just one but two.
A M he can be
at club or church or school.

Je$us looked down upon the earth
and what did Je$us see?
A fine 9 year old boy -- an M for 'Me".
