PRECIOUS MOMENTS

     God is for us all the way.  Can I know Him?  Yes!  Can I understand everything He permits?  No.  But I can know the best part of Him:  His heart!  Where love, joy, blessings come from.  As a baby is laying at his mother's breast feeling her heart beat, I lay close to my life source.  I feel His heart beat, and nothing else matters.
     Does the child know anything about his mother?  Close to her heart, he knows everything will be OK.  He knows it.  He doesn't have to understand it all.  He knows warmth, love, closeness, security.  Every need is taken care of.  He says, "Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the Shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1).  As the babe has only to cry out for its mother, so it is with Me and My Father."
     When everything around me and in me is changing faster than I can process it, I need my Father!  He has said, "I will never fail you.  I will never abandon you."  He also said, "Become as a little child, the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven."  Well, it looks like I've come full circle.  I am blessed.  He knows just the right words to say at the right time.  It's what He died to give us--the love and joy that He had with Father.  Complete dependence on His love and protection.  John 17.  His Heart.  It only takes closeness to hear it beat.  Thank you.  Three in One.
     I am at peace, full, content at rest like a babe at the breast.  As a babe gets hungry again, and cries out for more, I know I will get hungry for more, and He will feed me.  I will feel His heart beat and feel satisfied and safe again.
     Become as a little child.  You may hear me gurgle and coo, "ABBA."  Grace.  Rev. 22:17 amp. Bible, Rev. 22:21.  "Come, Lord Jesus!"  Genesis 3:8

In His Love, a work in progress.
