... reaching for the Son

I use to believe in a God who smiled occasionally, when I did something that made Him happy. Now I know a God who beams over me day and night, every second of my existence.

Take a moment...

Take a moment right now to look at your finger tips and maybe you toes too. Marvel at the fact that they work, that you heart and lungs began to work that moment you were born, that your tinny little heart and lungs that had never tired using air before tired their first try when you were born and did it! They worked just right... maybe they needed a little help but they did it and have been doing it ever since. When Babies are born with defects that cause them to die shortly after birth we often ask "Why God? Why did you let this happen?" Yet we take for granted all the times it doesn't happen. We forget that it didn't happen to us. We forget that we work perfectly. In a fallen world things just don't always work, and that it is a miracle that it does work as often as it does. So take a breath and watch all that oxygen get to all the way out to your fingers and Thank God that you work.
