gifts from heaven

this past wknd i went home for a friends bridal shower. i decided when i woke up that morning that i was going to leave early and surprise my family at church- plus another good friend, mallory, and her husband were having their daughter dedicated. well, i missed the dedication but i got to surprise my fam. and sneak some love to little makaria :) i sat with mallory during the second service while her husband gave the sermon and sitting next to her while she held her little girl was truly so special. just watching mallory interact with her daughter, took my breath away. i could feel the love she has to give to makaria, and not only that but i see the love chad, her husband, continues to give to them both. mallory has told me there is no love like the love you have for your child. that having makaria was the BEST thing in the world! if we, on this earth can feel such love for one another, how much more does god feel for us? don't we all yearn to feel so loved by someone? to feel their touch and security?

i'm not saying this is how ya'll should feel but, my prayer is that god would continue to draw me close to him and to keep revealing himself to me. i never want to get to a place where my relationship becomes stale or predictable. i want to believe jesus can fulfill every need i have, and yeah even as a christian you can ask god to help you with your unbelief. most of us have never experienced a love so real, someone who loves you like jesus does. this is where i believe with all my heart that there are relationships between men and women where this happens. not perfection- just a solid foundation- god is the glue that binds everything together no matter what the world throws at them.

dare to believe god can and will make all your dreams come true if you ask and seek him.
