Happy New Year!
Yesterday my 14 yr old, 5ft 4' daughter came in my room, laid in bed..and wrapped her long leg around me, her arms, closed her eyes and said.. "Your so warm mom"... I wanted to cry..I figured that she has grown out of this stage..of hanging and hugging on me. She actually fell asleep for about an hour. To me, this is such a thrill, a blessing, heart-warming, heart-smiling event...( I actually wanted to take a pic lol). (I know she loves me, she is just growing out of showing it). As I tried to peel her off me.. she just wouldnt let go. and told me how warm and cuddly I was.. by then, I realized that I havent done this w/ My Jesus, My Savior. When was the last time I held on to HIM, and didnt want to let go? Have I told HIM how warm and cuddly He was when Im w/ Him? Have I caused Him to feel heart-warming, heart-smiling? Wow.. I had to examine myself.. 2 lessons learned... 1.treasure EVERY Moment w/ our children...AND 2. put a smile on HIS heart..... Amazing
Lord You are Awesome!! I raise my hands.. and lift my voice to You alone. I love to hug YOU,close my eyes, and never let go.!!
AMEN..
That is so beautiful. Treasure those moments! :O)
