anyway, just spent sometime in his presence and was just humbled by how he sees us. beautiful. blameless. perfect. we (i) put so much pressure on ourselves "to get stuff done" that we forget how he sees us. i sometimes get glimpses of that unimaginable love when i look at my boys...so innocent and amazingly joyful over the littlest things. not bothered by messes and deadlines...oblivious to schedules and planning.
cooper had his first nightmare last night. he woke up crying hysterically saying that "they were taking me away" it broke my heart to see this new emotion. it reminded me of how i will not be able to protect him and shelter him from different things of this world. how sad god must have been as eve let sin permeate her heart...as the Father watched her experience these new emotions.....it broke His heart.
the scriptures are so beautiful and as you just ponder and let them settle into your heart they truly give you a sense of freedom.....the kind that brings peace because you know it's not by your own strength and that you're not walking alone. HE is there...ALWAYS....and HE knows what you are going through.
