A mommy's thoughts!

I was sitting in the bathroom getting ready this morning when Laken came into the bathroom with his beloved blanket and climbed into my lap for a long cuddle session. If you know Laken, you know he is a busy body and doesn't cuddle very often so when he's in the mood I drop everything to take advantage of this precious time. While I was sitting there hugging him close, I felt God's presence so close saying, "You know how much you love your children? I love YOU even more than that." It is a love that I can not fathom. The love I have for my children is indescribable. I would die for them, spend every dime I have to get them their dreams, drop anything and everything if they needed something, and pour out all my energy, time and prayers to make sure that they are amazing men of God. I can't even imagine a love that is deeper than that. I started to cry when I heard God say this because although I know He loves me, it is little reminders like this that give me a whole new perspective on my precious daddy. I love my relationship with God. He is not this untouchable God that we can only hear about in church. He is my intimate friend, my closest companion, my comforter in times of need and my daddy. My daddy who hears all my needs and loves me more than I will ever know. He will NEVER leave me, NEVER abandon me, and NEVER turn his back on me and I am so thankful that He reminds me of those things when I need them most! I love you God! Thank you for moments like these!
