Whatsoever things are lovely

I had something lovely to think about today. At one time, I did not know why anyone would think about having children in this world. I figured the wisest thing is to just stop bringing innocent children into this most distressing situation we have created on earth.

But..... God has given me a revealation about having children. Of course, biblically speaking it is good to be fruitful and multiply. God commands us to do that. However, the Spirit of God opened my eyes to all of the God Given hope that comes with having a child. A little baby is like a container that holds God's answer to the despair we experience.

Since God through Jesus has reconciled us back to Him, every single child that is born is a little container of limitless Hope. Even though things go wrong over time, God never gives up. He continues to bless this earth with new opportunities for His Love and Overcoming grace to be manifested everyday through each child that is born.

Children Are A Gift From God

Joy From Unexpected Sources

I never thought I would be so happy. I never thought something so simple as babysitting a little baby or tutoring 2 young children would make me so happy. At the beginning of this year, I cried out to God and asked Him to bring some more people into my life because my life lacked "life". It felt as if my life had ended in this pool of uneventful sludge. Anyway, at the beginning of this year, I prayed that there would have a major change and in my mind, I pictured something more dynamic.

To Hold A Little One In My Barren Arms

Well, a few weeks ago, I started babysitting a little baby who is in desperate need. When this little one came into our life, I felt new life enter into my heart. I was so overwhemingly pleased and thankful with God. I told my Father in heaven that I never thought that this would be the new person in my life but I couldn't think of a more wonderful person. This little young man brought tears of joy to my eyes. May the Lord Bless him and keep him. May the Lord Make His Face to Shine Upon him. May the Lord Lift up His Countenance upon Him and Give him Peace.

Looking Into The Future

Now, today, I just began another little adventure with 2 new children. I am their tutor. Once again, I didn't think that tutoring could be so great. These children are so receptive. I see so clearly how children are our future. I have always had a head knowledge of it and heard people say it. I myself have said it too. But now that I am sitting face to face with these precious young ones, I know that I am looking into the future. I tutor them individually and I have already decided that we would pray before I begin class and pray when we finish. One is 10 and the other is 7. They are both so very eager to learn. As I type this I am thinking "God bless them both".

In Jesus Name!!!!
