I always love and need my heavenly Father. Sometimes I am more aware of it than others. like now.

Father And Child

You look into my face each day and I look into Yours with trust.

You assure me every step of the way. My hands in Yours is a must.

Like a mother with her child You nurture and comfort me.

Like a Father with his child You guide, discipline me, and help me to see.

And although I don't always understand Your ways.

I know that I can trust You and that You love me all my days.

I believe Your word that You have written my name on the palm of Your hand.

That You will never forget me and I know in You I can stand.

Love And Understanding

I am baby sitting a two month old. He is too little to understand when his tummy hurts because he is hungry or gassy. He is too little to understand when he manages to get his has free and scratch himself. Even so he is not too little to hear the love and understanding in my voice. Or to feel my presence as I hang in there with him. He feels me trying  to comfort him; with food, love, and by meeting his needs. In the midst of all our heart ache, physical, and mental pain, trouble and sorrow we often ask why. We just cant understand why us or me when we are going through things. Just like with the baby these things are part of life. But God has promised us when we are with Him in heaven we will understand. We need comfort and our needs met  now and God does comfort us and meet our needs and more. And the things we don't understand God knows and understands. He let's us know that He is hanging in there with us. We can hear the love and understanding in His voice. We can feel His presence and comfort. We can see Him meeting our every need. And as the baby has learned to trust me to do all that for him. I have learned that we can trust God to do all that for us and more. Yes He even changes my dirty diapers (sinful ways) and gives me a bath daily (Forgives my sins). 

Can a woman forget her nursing child, and not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, yet I will not forget you. See I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Isaiah 50:15-16  Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us , that we shall be called the children of God! 1 John 3:1
