Starting this blog has been a great experience for me. I knew The Lord worked in my life everyday. I have a firm testimony The Lord is concerned with every aspect of our lives, just as we are with our own children or family members. He is our Father. Even with that it has been an eye opener to how many times The Lord has saved me or my husband or my child from something simple. Today my littlest one chocked on a toy of one of her siblings that I gave her and did not even think it would harm her. It was a kids watch. Sturdy, fun, good to teeth on, lights up.... Fun. Not when you forget that there is a little rubber band that holds one band of the watch down when being worn. My little one found said piece and got it in her mouth and almost stuck in her wind pipe. Before I even knew what was happening she was over it. She gaged a bit, fussed and had it in the front of her mouth for daddy to take out in seconds. But in the after math I got the very distinct impression that once again The Lord stepped in and helped the little piece out of her mouth while saying to me, "Please think better about what you give this little one to go in her mouth. She needs your watchful eye a little better. But we are good, everyone is safe. Just don't do it again." Great parenting moment. I am sure this happens in all our lives more than we realize. I would not be seeing it so much if I was not doing this blog. As I said in the beginning, this is more help for me than anyone else. I love seeing how The Lord is everywhere. It brings me great comfort. It's not just in the end that The Lord steps up and makes up for our mistakes. He is doing it now and will continue to as long as we make Him a part of our lives. Welcome Him in. He is one of the greatest friends/ protectors/ comforters/ counselors/ teachers you will ever have. You will never regret being closer to Him, but you will regret stepping too far from Him. I have learned this time and again. And time and again He has welcomed me back. That is love.
God Loves You!
