1. For Those Who Feel All Alone

For the mom who doesn't know where her kid is tonight. The aunt raising her nephew because her sister would rather have a boyfriend than a kid. The parent whose children are using drugs. Or the grandma mommy who has a toddler with anxiety disorders. For the daughter who's been abandoned by her parents. The wife who just received the dear Jane letter from her spouse. Or the teenage girl standing outside the abortion clinic. For those struggling to understand why a loving God would allow such cruelness in the world. 

He hears you.
He knows your pain. 
He is right by your side. 
He knows your every thought 
and loves you anyway.


Jesus went to the cross for you friend. He loved you enough before you ever entered your mother's womb to lay down His life as a sacrifice for whatever you are facing right now. And He will still love you whether you make the correct decisions or not. Whether your faith is of a mustard seed. Whether you are contemplating suicide or checking into the local rehab. Jesus is with you, my darling. And He will not ever go away. Cling to Him. He is right beside you. Close your eyes and allow yourself to feel His presence. He really is right there. I know, because when I am at my lowest of lows, I feel Him when I don't feel as if I am loved by any other.

2. The Purity of a Child

I didn't have a camera this morning, (this is a photo I found of another little girl and edited) but my little angel got up bright and early as usual.  We turned on some kid's worship music on youtube. She loves to watch other kids worship the Lord. But she loves to dance even more. I am so proud to have children in my life who aren't afraid to talk about Jesus.

When we are in restaurants, she grabs the waitress/waiter's hand and says when they bring her food, "We pray now."
It's not like she is commanding them to join us, but more of a sweet invitation. Childlike faith. And I love my babies.

Doodlebug talks to Mimi about Jesus. We pray together and read stories when she's with me. And when Little Man gets bigger, Mimi will definitely be there to teach him as well. I want them to know real faith. Not just something they read in a book. I am grateful I have an opportunity to teach them while they are young and innocent. I pray I am as good an influence in example to them as I am in showing them the Word, though. They learn more by what they see you doing and saying than they do you teaching them straight out.

I am grateful this morning for the wisdom of the Lord. He has been showing me many revelations lately. Knowledge is power. Within that power of the Blood of Jesus lies all the answers to life.
