“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
“Remember your creator in the days of your youth before the days of trouble come.” (Ecclesiastes 12:1)
Trust and faith are such a big part of life, and they are an on-going life lesson as I was reminded by a 22 month year old Grandnephew.
One day not so long ago, on her way to visit her in-laws, my niece decided to stop at her folks and check on their house. With her were her husband and their 22 months old son Sammy. Sammy knows the home of Grandpa and Grandma as the place of hugs and kisses.
Because car seats are such a hassle, when they arrived he was told he was going to stay in his seat and would not be going in, Grandpa and Grandma were not there. Sammy, ready for his hugs and kisses, protested vehemently and was not having any of this after at all! Grandpa and Grandma were always there when Sammy came to visit! Sammy was not let out of his seat.
After visiting the in-laws, on the way home it was naptime so they decided to stop at her folks home again where there was a bed already set for Sammy. This time Sammy was ready, he shot out of his seat on the run through the open door calling for Grandpa and Grandma, ready for hugs and kisses. Needless to say they did not stay and Sammy did not nap.
For me, every day I awake and know He is there, I go to church and know He is there!
Everyday is Christmas, Good Friday, and Easter all rolled into one and for the rest of our lives!
He is the Lord of the Dance.
Faith and Trust!
Prayer: Please Lord lead me to live in You as You live in me wherever I may be. Amen.
