A mother from Texas recorded her 2-year-old boy in a video, raising his hands and singing along to the song, ‘The Blessing’. The video clip reached over two million views as the boy touched hearts with his pure worship.

Eric and Mandy Godwin desire to see their children grow in love with God. But they got to witness it earlier than expected with their 2-year-old adopted son, Ezekiel.

Sweet 2-year-old boy

“He’s survived an attempted abortion…not once, but twice,” Mandy shared in their joint Facebook account. “From the moment we brought him home from the hospital, we knew he was special. God has mighty plans for this one.” Further noting that Ezekiel’s name means “God strengthens.”

The couple shared that as they were cleaning their kitchen, they decided to play some “background music.” They played “The Blessing” by Elevation Worship.

“For 2.5-year-old Ezekiel, it’s more than just background noise…it’s his anthem!” they continued. “When he heard it, he immediately abandoned his Little Tikes dump truck in his bedroom and sprinted downstairs to show the rest of us where true strength is found!”

The love they have for Ezekiel is evident in the way they described their little boy. They wrote, “He’s special in so many ways. He’s smart as a whip. He’s more athletic and agile than I could ever dream of being.”

They continued, “He’s got that irresistible twinkle of joy in his eyes. He loves music, especially worship music. He can dance better than anyone in our family. And He loves to pray…with passion.”

The Godwins have 6 children, 3 biological and 3 adopted. Today, Eric is a pastor at Shannon Oaks Church and Mandy continues her profession as a teacher to her homeschooled kids. They hope to inspire many with their family’s stories of faith and love through their Youtube channel, Our Godwin Life.
