My gifts.

I had Judah in Ellie’s highchair today while I sat at the table working. He played with his toys, crashing them around. I happened to glance up and noticed his toes. Oh these toes. I’m mesmerized by them. I’m also a little amazed at the cankles leading into the feet leading into the toes. Sweet chubby baby feet. I can’t help but wonder where they will go, what roads they will travel. I hold this precious baby boy close and breathe prayers that he will deeply know Jesus. That he will live out the truth that he is mightily loved and that he will choose to mightily love in return. I pray that he will be a warrior in God’s Kingdom.

I came around the corner yesterday and this was my view.  She was watching her tub fill up and adding her toys. She’s been telling us lately that she is a princess. We whole heartedly agree and when she says those words I echo them in a prayer that she will know her true worth and value. That she will be a lover of truth, and that Jesus will be her unending pursuit.
These are my children. Gifts from my Jesus that I treasure and cherish.

They are teaching me about how loved and treasured we are by God. I get echoes of His heart as my heart dreams over my children and longs for their good. He whispers of His goodness to me.
“For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. 
He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”
Zephaniah 3:17
