“OUT FATHER!”

Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 668

January 30, 2024///

Sunday a young man came and sat on the row on which we were sitting.

He had by the hand a beautiful little girl about 4 or so. She was dressed perfectly in a beige cute dress with beige tights with designs in them and a pair of cowboy type boots with some shiny diamond type stones circling the boot in one place.

She sat on a seat, and he stood for the praise and worship music.

She sat there for a while and then she got up, slipped around in front of him, and looked up at him and lifted her arms a bit and he reached down and picked her up.

She laid her head on his shoulder and hugged him tight. Then she raised her head and gave him a kiss. He was loving it, hugged her, and cuddled her for a while.

She then got back down, sat in the seat for a while and then she did the same thing and he cuddled her like before.

You could see the love in his eyes and the love and adoration all over her for him.

When Pastor Rick dismissed the Children for JP Kids service, the man took her by the hand and led her to the appropriate place.

Understand, as all this was going on I was worshipping, sometimes with eyes closed and sometimes with hands raised but I could not help seeing this scene unfolding around me.

The Holy Spirit opened my spiritual understanding of what I was seeing played out!

Our Heavenly Father is filled with unfiltered Love for us, and when we reach out to Him, He will lift us up, put His arms around us, and cuddle us, until we decide we can go about our way.

God will do that same thing over and over and as we come to Him and lift our hands and hearts to Him. He lifts us up and cuddles the cares and concerns away.

God the Father will clothe us with garments of blessings and righteousness and shoes of peace, joy, and favor.

As the Daddy led his loved child to be taught in the kids’ program, God leads us into places we can learn and be taught.

You see, we must understand, that as much as that little girls Daddy loved his child and would protect her at any cost, our Heavenly Fathers Love is so much greater than that it cannot be measured.

Luke 11:13 (KJV)

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Luke 12:28 (KJV)

If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Deuteronomy 31:6 (KJV)

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

God Loves us and will fight our battles as we walk with Him, let Him lead, and show Him our Love.

Like the child I observed Sunday, don’t worry about anything.

Gods got this!

I have used this Corrie Ten Boom quote before, but it says it all!

“SNUGGLE, DON’T STRUGGLE!”

____________________________________________

Father, in Jesus’ name I come. Forgive each of us for struggling when we should be snuggling. Help us to just lean on you, show our love for you, and let you provide, protect, and lead us through life. I praise you for your Love and ask you to make your perfect and complete Love real to each one who reads this. Make it real: deep in the innermost parts of their body. Help each of us to rest in you and cast all our cares on you!

Love, MeMaw
