Our Savior's Love

Just imagine sitting on a playground full of kids...when one little girl whom you've been playing with looks up at you with huge, gorgeous brown eyes and says the words "Can you just be my mommy?"  I didn't know what on earth to say to her so I simply hugged her a little tighter and wished the moment would never end.

This little girl didn't know me. She knew my name and she knew what I looked like but she didn't know my past or where I came from. I didn't know her either yet in that moment, God saw it fit to put us together, for me to show her God's love. And to think, God's love is so much greater than the love I was showing that girl.

I wasn't able to give her a lasting human relationship where I would be with her as she walks through the rest of her childhood, finds herself, grows up into an adult, and lives the rest of her life. But you know what I could tell her? I could tell her about my loving Savior and my loving Father. I could tell her that he will never leave her and that in every single moment that there's no one else there for her, God will always be there for her.

Don't you think that sometimes we need to be reminded of this? We get so caught up in our lives and in our schedules and we lose sight of God. We forget that He has it all in the palm of His hand and he knows what he is doing. I mean he's been doing it since the beginning of time right?

"Your plans are still to prosper, You have not forgotten us
You’re with us in the fire and the flood
Faithful forever, Perfect in love
You are sovereign over us"

God's there whispering, "Come to me....Come to me..." Will you listen?
