Ever had one of those days when one of your kids (or some significant person) does something that just humbles you and blows you away? Something little, yet more explosive to the soul than a thousand sticks of dynamite?
I came into my office the other day to find one such surpirse, a taped together Post-It note message that read like a cryers shouts in the streets. A proclamation of "halleljahs" to my then-weary heart.
"Love is more than a word. The words 'I love you', mean that you will always protect, be patient and kind. Love is not prideful, and love does not boast. Love is a gift that God gives us.
"Parents are a gift as well. Parents are people that God put in your life to be a blessing--and you are! I love you, DaddyO!"
Love, Lydia
A moment of silence, please...
Simply giving what we have to offer from this life God has given us, trusting that others will see how splendid He is as we tell our stories.
